The term applied when water passes through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high to low concentration is called osmosis. Osmotic pressure is defined as the amount of external pressure that is required to stop the net movement of the solution across the semi permeable membrane. In terms of biology, osmosis has great importance as most of the membranes in our body are semi permeable. Permeability depends on several factors such as charge, solubility, solute size and chemistry. Osmosis is the process that provides the primary means through which water travels in and out of the cells.
Answer: D.) a suggested answer to a problem
Explanation:
A hypothesis is a supposition, suggested answer or a proposed explanation based on limited evidence which can be use to start an investigation. A hypothesis is more than a guess but less than a established theory and it can be tested through study and experiments.
<u>A hypothesis is part of the scientific method </u>because it is a prediction which can be tested and the results from those experiments may disprove a hypothesis, but can never entirely prove one.
It is not a conclusion because it is an idea which tries to explain an observation. It is not information collected from experiments because hypothesis are formulated before carrying out the experiments and it is not a widely accepted idea because it just proposes a tentative explanation about a phenomenon.
Large organisms include...
Mammals (Mammalia)
Stem-mammals (Synapsida)
Reptiles (Reptilia)
Dinosaurs (Dinosauria)
Answer:
b. behavioral isolation
Explanation:
It is a type of reproductive barrier that can lead to speciation. Behavioral behavior, such as mating rituals as in when two populations of the same species show some difference in behavior, typically in mating rituals
and signals.
A protein is a polymer of amino acids.
When amino acids are joined by dehydration synthesis (a process that removes
water to form a chemical bond), they form peptide bonds. <span>There are three main components of an
amino acid, the amino group, the side chain, and the carboxylic acid group. </span>
