B. Subgroups
<span>When constructing a dichotomous key, the first step is to look at the group of objects or organisms and separate them into two groups based on a single distinguishing characteristic. Then continue to separate each of the groups until each object has its own separate set of characteristics.</span>
Upwelling is a process in which the deep and cold water rises to the water surface and not sea surface. This process plays an important role in maintaining balance in our ecosystem as it boost the marine productivity by washing the nutrients from deeper waters to the photic layer where photosynthesis is promoted.
Diffusion is the spontaneous movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
Osmosis is the passage of water molecules from a high water concentration region through a selectively permeable membrane to a low water concentration region.
In diffusion, selectively permeable membrane is neither required nor involved while in osmosis, it is involved.
