Osmotic pressure is: the pressure required to stop the flow of solvent from a region of high solute concentration to a region of
low solute concentration. the pressure required to stop the rupture of the semipermeable membrane. the pressure required to reverse the flow of solvent through a semipermeable membrane during osmosis. the pressure required to stop the flow of solvent from a region of low solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane into a region of high solute concentration. None of these
the pressure required to stop the flow of solvent from a region of low solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane into a region of high solute concentration.
Explanation:
Osmosis is the movement of water (solvent molecule) from a region of low solute concentration to a region of high solute concentration via a semipermeable membrane.
Osmotic pressure is the pressure (force) applied to a given solvent in order to prevent it's movement via osmosis across a semipermeable membrane. Since, osmotic pressure is the pressure required to stop osmotic process, then it can be further defined as follows:
Osmotic pressure is the pressure required to stop the flow of solvent from a region of low solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane into a region of high solute concentration.
The answer is C. Pheromones are hormones (which are proteinous) produces by individuals of the same species and are a means to send communication signals for social interactions. They signal alarm, food and even sex. Sex pheromones are released by females beetles into the environment to signal their availability for mating. The pheromones are picked up by receptors on the male beetles and this is how they find the females.
The carrying capacity is different for all populations. It can vary from species to species, habitat to habitats and even within the same habitat at different times. ... So depending on the demands of the species the environment can be capable of sustaining different population sizes of different species............... ᐛ
