<span>. Estuaries have been called the "nurseries of the sea" because the protected environment and abundant food provide an ideal location for fish and shellfish to reproduce. Most commercially important fish species spend some part of their life cycle in estuaries. Besides fish, many species of birds depend on estuaries for food and nesting areas. Migratory birds use estuaries as stopover points for resting and feeding before continuing their journey. Marine mammals also use estuaries as feeding grounds and nurseries.</span>

Which one of the following is an example of osmosis? A. Water enters a plant by passing through the root cell membranes. B. Pota
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

A. Water enters a plant by passing through the root cell membranes.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a kind of passive transport i.e. no energy input is required by the cell, that involves the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration/high solvent concentration to a region of high solute concentration/low solvent concentration. The movement is usually facilitated by a difference in concentration gradient between the cell's membrane and the extracellular solution.

In this question, water from the soil enters into the root's cell via its cell membrane, which acts as the semi-permeable membrane. This movement must have occured because the solute concentration in the root's cell is higher than that of the soil, forming an osmotic gradient.

yaroslaw [1]
The answer is mRNA. Translation is the process of reading the code in mRNA in the ribosomes to make protein. The ribosome is the organelle responsible for making proteins. The mRNA is translated from the language of nucleic acids (nucleotides) to the language of proteins.
