saveliy_v [14]
The answer to this question would be: False

The rate of diffusion should not be influenced by molecular weight. Big molecule might not be able to pass the membrane though.

Answer: The study of plant varieties.

Explanation:

He credited the study of plant varieties to have been most crucial to his final analysis because farmers had been crossbreeding varieties for millennia to bring about better traits in plants.
