A beaker of water is separated by a selectively permeable membrane that allows the passage of water but not ions. A solution of

Answer:

osmosis

Explanation:

The process that was going is <u>osmosis</u>.

<em>Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from regions of high water potential to regions of low water potentials through a selectively permeable membrane.</em>

In this case, the membrane is only permeable to water movement and not ions and water molecules move from the side with pure water (which happens to have higher water potential) to the side with 4% sodium chloride until equilibrium in water potential is established between the two sides.

what were some of the strange and unexpected things that scientists discovered when they analyzed the human genome? (the video)
OlgaM077 [116]

<span>Before the completion of the Human Genome Project, it took few years before the well-known forecasts stated that humans had at least 100,000 genes. But latest Human Genome Project evaluates lowered number to a more timid range of 20,000 to 25,000. It has helped to narrow the range of feasible genes and to separate certain candidates as supplying to particular diseases. Scientists have also re-evaluated past conclusions, such as the idea that genes are self-restrained, detached pieces of DNA with defined character. They now know that some genes that tasks simultaneously can make more than one protein; where in fact the average gene might make three proteins. Also, genes will be visible to grab genetic code from other DNA parts</span>

Answer: Sample C is 62%.

Sample C would be best because it has the highest coefficient of absorption. <span>Sound absorption coefficient is defined as THE ratio of absorbed energy to incident energy and the higher the percentages, the better the absorption is. It indicates that most of the sound being absorbed and less is being reflected back. </span>
