The factors that determines the rate of diffusion in the biological system include: temperature, size of the particles, diffusion distance and concentration gradients. Of all these factors, the most important  one is the TEMPERATURE.
The relationship between temperature and the rate of diffusion is a direct one, that is, the higher the temperature the higher the rate of diffusion and vice versa. At high temperature the molecules in the particles move faster because they have higher amount of energy.

A strand of DNA consists of 35% adenine. What is the percentage of thymine in that same
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The percentage of adenine will equal the percentage of thymine, and the percentage of cytosine will equal the percentage of guanine. Together, these percentages will add to 100%. We know that the sample is 35% adenine, which tells us that it is also 35% thymine.

Apple maggots are a type of fly native to North America. Prior to the introduction of the apple tree to North America, apple mag
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

B is the most likely consequence because of the following facts we are told:

  • After apple trees were introduced, some apple maggots began feeding from and laying their eggs on apple trees
  • Adult apple maggots will only mate on the type of tree on which they were born.

This provides a geographical isolation (because they are feeding and laying eggs on separate trees) and reproductive isolation (because they will only mate on the type of tree on which they are born).

These two factors increase the chances that apple maggots feeding on apple trees will only encounter those who have mated on the same tree, and continue to mate this way. Over time, the populations (i.e. apple tree vs hawthorn tree) will intermix less and less. This will mean the genetic pool will become distinct, and natural selection will be acting differently (different habitats and different genes), encouraging speciation.
