What is osmosis? Please help me

Biology
1 answer:
KIM [24]3 years ago
4 0
First off, we need to understand that osmosis is typically used with the example of water---
To understand that, osmosis is taking water from a high concentration to a low concentration to make the membrane equal to one another .
Imagine you have a pea, and the pea is about to explode of water. And you have another pea that's shriveled up. You would take some of the exploding water's pea into the shriveled one, therefore making it equal. (Thats my example I like to use!)
I hope this helped!

A student does an experiment for a science fair to study whether temperature affects the timing of a cricket’s chirps. The stu
nexus9112 [7]

The frequency of chirps increases as the temperature increases. The correct option is B. <em>The chirps occur closer together as the temperature increases.  </em>

-------------------------------

<h2><u>Available data:</u></h2>

<h3>Data recorded by the student </h3>

<em><u>Day      Temperature   Average time between chirps (sec)</u></em>

1            21                             2. 5

2           22                            2. 6

3           23                            2. 2

4           24                            2. 3

5           25                            2. 0

6           26                             1. 8

7           27                              1. 9

8           28                             1. 8

9          29                             1. 4

10          30                             1. 2

11           31                              1. 5

<u>12          32                             1. 1</u>

In this experiment the student recorded the time in seconds <u>between </u><u>chirps</u>.

We can see that <em>as the </em><em>temperature increases</em><em>, in general, the</em><em> time</em><em> between</em><em> chirps decreases</em>.

  • At 21ºC the time between chirps is 2.5 seconds
  • At 26ºC the time between chirps is 1.8 seconds
  • At 32ºC the time between chirps is 1.1 seconds

According to this information, if the average time between chirps decreases with the temperature increase, we can assume that<em> the </em><em>frequency</em><em> of chirps </em><em>increases</em><em> as the temperature gets higher. </em>

<h3>Options,</h3>

<em>A) The higher the temperature, the fewer chirps there will be in 10 seconds</em>.

Wrong. The number of chirps in 10 seconds will depend, not only on the frequency but also on how long the chirps last. Since the student did not record the time of chirps, we can not make this conclusion.  

<em>B) The chirps occur closer together as the temperature increases</em>.

True. The chirps increase in frequency as the temperature increases, so they occur closer together.

<em>C) The chirps become farther apart as the temperature increases</em>.

Wrong. We can see how the time between chirps decreases as temperature increases, meaning that they are closer not farther.

D) There is no relationship between temperature and the time between chirps.

Wrong. If we make a graph we will see the tendency and the relationship between chirps and temperature.

Graphs usually explain the relationship between variables. In this example, the relationship would be inverse.

Which geological feature is most common at oceanic-continental convergent boundaries?
alex41 [277]

Trenches are geological feature is most common at oceanic-continental convergent boundaries.

Explanation:

Usually, the oceanic plate, because it is denser, becomes subducted underneath the continental plate. The enormous stress of the two colliding plates causes the plates to warp abit downwards along the boundary causing a trench to form that stretches the boundary.

As the oceanic plate gets subducted and ‘dives’ into the mantle, it begins to melt into magma. Usually, due to the enormous stress along the boundary, fissures develop on teh continental plate along teh boundary. The magma rises through these fissures and erupts at the surface. Several mountains form long the boundary forming another signature geological feature of convergent boundary which is volcanic arc mountains.
