Diffusion is a spontaneous process in which molecules move with their concentration gradient. For example, if you place food coloring in water, the food coloring will slowly diffuse through the water until the entire solution has been balanced.
Osmosis is specifically the movement of <em>water</em> through a semipermeable membrane - meaning a membrane that can let some substances in but keep others out - and, similar to diffusion, it moves with its concentration gradient. For example, if you place a glucose solution sealed in plastic in water, water will move into the plastic to even out the concentration of glucose in the entire solution because glucose is too large to diffuse freely.
Hope this helped!
Hi There!
1. a. Toxicodendron

4. b. Plantae
5. a. Protist
6. While protists are unicellular eukaryotes can be both single or multicelled. Most protists have special organelles and a nuclear membrane which differs from bacteria.
Hope This Helps :)
Preventing wind erosion in a dry, sandy area is feasible through any of the following land-use practices:
a. Tillage - creates soil roughness by making furrows and ridges that are perpendicular to the direction of the wind.
b. Crop rotation - rotations of legumes followed by shrubs followed by trees then back to legumes work best.
c. Intercropping - is the most widely used particularly in countries with desert areas. One of the most popularly used is oasis agriculture that makes use of about 3 layers of vegetation.
(x-3)² = (x-3)(x-3)
= x² - 3x - 3x + 9
= x² - 6x + 9
Answer:
A. A year of drought followed by four years of average or above-average rain
Explanation:
In the first year the Finches population goes down drastically meaning that a disaster must have occurred that would negatively affect the population, a drought. The next four years the Finch population increases steadily so the average rainfall must have been average or above average according to the graph.
