Answer:
The activity that does not represent a beneficial contribution made by biologists is to improve the durability of non-stick coatings (option C).
Explanation:
The development and improvement of non-stick coatings does not correspond to an activity within the field of biology. Anti-stick coatings, such as Teflon, are products developed through industrial activity.
Biologists' activity is focused on living organisms and their interaction with the surrounding environment. Improving arable soils and food quality, as well as increasing life expectancy are activities that fall within the field of study of biology and its related disciplines.

Answer:
1 mol per dm3 sodium chloride solution
Explanation:
The liquid that would cause the largest decrease in the mass of the potato stick would be the one with <u>1 mole per dm3 sodium chloride solution.</u>
<em>The water potential of a solution depends on the molarity of the solution, the higher the molarity, the lower the water potential and vice versa. Hence, a solution with higher molarity has the tendency to osmotically draw more water from the potato stick than a solution with lower molarity.</em>
Therefore, the potato stick will have the largest decrease in mass in 1 mol per dm3 sodium chloride when compared to the 0.5 and 0.1 mole per dm3 solutions.

Answer:
a. transcription
Explanation:
<em>Sugar transport in phloem is referred to as pressure flow and it involves the movement of sugar through the phloem vascular tissue from the regions where sugar is synthesized (by photosynthesis) to other parts of the plant's body that require sugar.</em>
The parts of plants where sugar is synthesized (usually the leaf) is known as sugar source while the parts where they are transported is referred to as the source. Sources are usually areas of of high osmotic concentration and high water pressure while sinks are usually areas of low osmotic concentration and low water pressure.
<em>Hence, sugar transport in the phloem can be said to be influenced by the rate of sugar production at the source (rate of photosynthesis), turgor pressure as well as sugar concentration in sinks and sources.</em>
The only option that has no known effect on sugar transport in the phloem is transcription.
The correct option is a.
