Yes - diffusion is a broad term that may be applied to a vast number of substances and is not limited to liquids ( gases can diffuse too). osmosis refers to the diffusion of liquid water down the water potential gradient

A genotype is controlled by the sex cells combining to form an organism. True or False
myrzilka [38]

True

A genotype is the combination of genes in its DNA of the organism that determines its traits

Explanation:

Gametes from parents contribute different alleles of genes to their offspring. This why gametes carry only one copy of genetic material of the organism. They later fuse to form a zygote with a full genetic copy and capable of developing into an full organism.

Depending on which kind of alleles the parents pass down to the offspring will determine the offspring's genotype. The genotype of the offspring will, on the other hand, affect its phenotype which is the outward characteristic. An example is the sickle cell trait. If both gametes from the parents contribute the recessive alleles of the gene, then the offspring will be homozygous recessive for sickle cell genotype and this will show in the phenotype pf the person who will have sickle cell shaped blood cells.

Contains nitrogen in the amine group : proteins

Made according to instructions from DNA: proteins

Explanation:

The cells of the human body synthesize proteins from the transcription and translation processes.

Fats and carbohidrates are ingested in the diet and metabolized by the body. However some types of fat such as cholesterol is synthesized by the human body. Same as phospholipids that are part of the membranes.

Proteins are formed by hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon. Amino acids are characterized  for owning a carboxyl group (- COOH) and an amino group (-NH2)

aniked [119]

Answer:

Independent variable: ALTITUDE

dependent variable: GROWTH OF PLANTS

Confounding variable: STOREYS OF THE BUILDING

Explanation:

In an experiment, the basic components i.e primary variables that an experiment should contain, are the independent and dependent variables.

- The independent variable is the variable that is changed or manipulated in an experiment. In this experiment, the ALTITUDE of the plant is the independent variable.

- The dependent variable is the variable that responds to changes to the independent variable. It is the variable measured in an experiment. In this case, the dependent variable is the GROWTH OF THE PLANTS.

- The confounding variable is a variable that has an extra influence on the outcome of the experiment. In other words, the confounding variable has an impact on the dependent variable. In this case, the confounding variable is the STOREYS OF THE BUILDING.
