Explanation:
The salt solution is meant to lower the ice melting point hence keep most of the water from turning into ice even at zero degrees temperatures. The salts are dissolved in the water to form a salty solution that percolates the ground and reach plant roots. Because the salty water is hypertonic (more concentrated) to the cell cytoplasm of the plant roots, water is drawn from the plant by osmosis. This is the reversal of normal plant root absorption of water from the soil. This causes the plant root to wither and subsequently the whole plant to die. Remember in osmosis, water moves from the less concentrated solution to the more concentrated solution through a semipermeable membrane.

Answer:
Groundwater is transported through aquifers because of two main reasons: gravity and pressure. In unconfined aquifers, which we concentrate on because they are more likely to be contaminated, water always flows from high points to low points because of gravity.
Explanation:
Answer: hypothesized that the higher pH levels would increase the rate
of movement of the Artemia. The students placed the Artemia in petri dishes with 2 mm x 2
mm grids marked off on the bottom of the dishes. The students calculated how fast the Artemia
traveled in each pH (4-9) solution by counting the number of squares on the grid that the
Artemia crossed per second of timing.
The data collected from their experiment is presented below:
