Answer:

When a sugary gummy bear is placed in water, there are more dissolved solutes inside the gummy bear.

Explanation:

The sugary gummy bear has more solutes as compared to the water in which it is being soaked. When a sugary gummy bear is placed in water, water enters the gummy bear through osmosis as water tends to move to the place where there are more solutes. The sugar gummy bear has more solutes. So, the gummy bear  expands and increases in size due to the entrance of water into it.

Answer:

Inside

Explanation:

The other answer helped explain it to me. When you put the sugary gummy bear in water, the water all rushes in and expands the gummy bear. If enough water gets in it, it could actually explode. That's why when you take the gummy bear out of the water, be very careful not to pop it.

What would happen if suddenly a change occurred that dogs could only eat deer that they hunted and killed?
Finger [1]

Answer:

The population of deers and dogs would go down.

Explanation:

If dogs could only eat deer plus the other animals that eat deer, then more deer would be hunted causing the population to go down. But since the dogs have to hunt and kill the deer themselves and they don't live near deer or they are bad at hunting, then the population of dogs would go down as well. Hope this helps and that is what you were asking for.

What evidence is there that the universe is expanding? Explain.
Vsevolod [243]

This is evidenced by Doppler shift effect. This is the phenomenon where waves that are coming from an object that is accelerating towards your direction are heard at a higher frequency than that of objects moving away from you. This is the same for light (which also has wave-like properties). When observing distant galaxies, astronomers discovered that they all showed to be redshift (change in the frequency of light towards red color). This means that all galaxies are moving away from each other because the universe is expanding.
