Answer:

reverse osmosis and solar evaporation

Explanation:

Reverse osmosis is a way to desalinate seawater, to do this in summary the seawater is placed in a cylinder and through a semipermeable membrane and thanks to the application of pressure on the salt water solution. This pressing  makes the water pass through the semipermeable membrane whose function is to allow the passage of water, but not the solute that are dissolved sales. Water passes through the membrane, from the side where the sales concentration is higher towards the side where the sales concentration is lower.

Direct solar desalination technology can process up to 10,000 meters. cubic of water a day. The heat from the sun evaporates the water, the purified steam is collected and recovered again in its liquid form.

Answer:

option c punctuated equilibrium

Explanation:

Punctuated equilibrium occurs in a process whereby evolutionary changes occurs in some organisms in a rapid burst of time rather the conceived gradual changes that occurs over a long period of time. this burst of time might be in about 500,000 years. It is assumed that the organism has maintained/lives in stasis for a long period without a need for change, but then, once the change takes place (most of the time, due to an environmental factor), the organism quickly adapts to its new environment with this new adaptation.
