Answer:
D. The presence of aquaporins (proteins that form water channels in the membrane) should speed up the process of osmosis.
Explanation:
Water moves in the cells through osmosis which means water moves from its higher concentration to lower concentration. In many animals and plants, water channels are also present which is called aquaporins which allow the water to move through it in and out of cell more quickly.
The rate of diffusion by channel proteins is higher than simple diffusion therefore the aquaporins speed up the process of osmosis. No ATP is required to transport the water through aquaporin channel proteins.
Answer:The answer would be C.
Explanation:
Law of superposition, a major principle of stratigraphy stating that within a sequence of layers of sedimentary rock, the oldest layer is at the base and that the layers are progressively younger with ascending order in the sequence.
The air that is inside a ship is much less dense than water. That's what keeps it floating! ... As a ship is set in water, it pushes down and displaces an amount of water equal to its weight
Answer:
Lightning
Explanation:
The term plasma referred to that condition when the electrons are "freed" from their host atoms for a short time. It happens due to the high temperatures.
Lightning is a plasma because when a column of electrons moves from sky to ground, the air that it passes through lights up with energy. What we see as lightning is the air. In this air, the electrons are excited and giving off light. We see it as a light.
From this brief discussion, we can say that as electrons become free and become excited and then give light, lighting is a plasma.
