Which is true regarding diffusion and osmosis

Biology

BaLLatris [955]3 years ago

“In diffusion, particles move from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration until equilibrium is reached. In osmosis, a semipermeable membrane is present, so only the solvent molecules are free to move to equalize concentration.”

Answer:

Diffusion is defined as the motion of a particle (substance) from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. It takes place in the case of both liquids as well as gases. It is because the particles present in the liquid and gas move randomly from one place to another. It plays a significant role in the body of living organisms because, with the help of this process, the substances are allowed to enter and eliminate out of the cells.

Osmosis is defined as the movement of water (fluid), through a membrane that is semi-permeable in nature (as in the case of a living cell) into a solution that is comprised of a comparatively higher concentration of solute, thereby balancing the solute concentrations on both sides of the membrane.

Why are the ventricles of the heart so much larger than the atria of the heart?
konstantin123 [22]
<span>The ventricles are the part of the heart that are responsible for the pumping action to move blood throughout the body. Therefore, the muscles in the ventricles are much larger and thicker to do their job properly. The atrium only has to pump blood through an open valve (the tricuspid valve) into the right ventricle. There is much less resistance to this flow of blood so much less muscle is needed. </span>

yarga [219]

Answer:

Deposition

Explanation:

Landslides occur under the effect of gravity. When a mass of rock or earth slides down from a mountain or from a cliff then this phenomenon is termed as Landslide.

Landslides are considered to be a rapid method of erosion.  Wind, waves, running water, glaciers and gravity are the five agents of erosion out of which the gravity influences the process of Landslides.

Landslides occur suddenly and are dangerous example of the movement of earth materials under the influence of gravity. When weathered material falls away from a cliff, it slides down under the effect of gravity and finally after reaching the hill, the material gets deposited there. This is called Deposition by landslides.
