Answer:

Osmosis occurs until the concentration gradient of water goes to zero or until the hydrostatic pressure of the water balances the osmotic pressure. Osmosis occurs when there is a concentration gradient of a solute within a solution, but the membrane does not allow diffusion of the solute.

Osmosis is the net movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane driven by a difference in solute concentrations on the two sides of the membrane. A selectively permiable membrane is one that allows unrestricted passage of water, but not solute molecules or ions.

Day 1: 4 km Day 2: 10 km Day 3: 12 km Day 4: 12 km Day 5: 18 km Day 6: 24 km

Answer:

In order to find average speed during each interval, we need to divide the distance during those intervals with the period of time. So, for the first interval (day 0 to day 2) hawksbill started from 0 and reached 10 kilometers by the end of the second day. That means that it crossed 10 kilometers in 2 days, so the average speed is 10/2 which is 5 km/day. Similarly, we can calculate speed for other intervals:

• day 2 - day 3: it went from 10 to 12 km in one day, which means it crossed 2 km in one day, so the average speed is 2/1 = 2 km/day

• day 3 - day 4: at the end of the third day it reached 12 km and at the end of the day 4 it remained at 12 km. That means the hawksbill wasn't moving in that interval so the speed was 0

• day 4 - day 5: it went from 12 km to 18 km, which means it crossed 18-12=6 km in one day, so the average speed is 6/1=6 km/day

• day 5 - day 6: it went from 18 to 24 km, which means it crossed 24-18=6 km in one day, so the speed was 6/1=6 km/day

So, to summarize, during the first interval turtle was moving with average speed of 5 km/day, then 2 km/day, in the third interval it wasn't moving and in the last two intervals, it moved in average speed of 6 km/day.
