This process is a technique of osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of solvent particles. For example, water along its concentration gradient, from high to low concentration, via a semi-permeable membrane is changing the structure of the molecules in the potato strips.
Since the environment of the potato strips are in a sugar concentrate, the potato will lose its water content and so loses weight and the strips will be thinner and dryer.
1. it’s false! If a predator’s population goes up, their prey’s population isn’t going to increase as well. It’s going to decrease.
Answer:
C. captures the potential energy of the proton gradient in the intermembrane space as the chemical energy in phosphate bonds of ATP.
Explanation:
ATP Synthase uses the energy of an existing proton gradient to power the production of ATP. This process is known as CHEMIOSMOSIS.
Answer:Isotonic: The solutions being compared have equal concentration of solutes. Hypertonic: The solution with the higher concentration of solutes. Hypotonic: The solution with the lower concentration of solutes.
Explanation:
<span>Sugar - Either ribose or deoxyribose (in RNA or DNA)
Nitrogenous base - Adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine (only in DNA), uracil (only in RNA)
Phosphates - One to three, two of which are usually hydrolyzed to
provide the energy to attach the nucleotide and form the phosphodiester
bond </span>
