You have a round pie plate filled with water. You carefully release a drop of red food coloring in the center of the plate until

the water is faintly red. After waiting for a long time, the dye molecules in the pie plate will: A. Continue moving in the same manner as when the drop was first placed in the water. B. Slow down, because they have moved to a lower concentration area. C. Stop moving, because they have reached equilibrium. D. Speed up, because they are farther from other dye molecules and have more space to move.

Answer:

C. Stop moving, because they have reached equilibrium.

Explanation:

Diffusion is the process whereby molecules/particles move from a region where they are highly concentrated to that region where they are less concentrated. This movement follows the concentration gradient i.e. difference in concentration that forms between the two regions. This movement continues until an equilibrium is attained in both regions i.e. equal concentration of the molecule.

In this question, a drop of red food coloring was released in the center of a plate containing water until the water becomes faintly red. The water gradually changes to red because molecules of the dye are moving from high concentration areas to lesser concentration areas. However, when an equal concentration is attained i.e. equilibrium, the MOLECULES WILL STOP MOVING.

Who would be the best people to study to help assess how science and society influence the expression of traits ?
Naddik [55]
Mostly, it would be social scientists however, some biologist could also explain these behavioral characteristics and temperaments like geneticists and cognitive scientists.
Variables and factors like the biological, environmental and evolutionary component of how a trait is unearth by these experts.

Delvig [45]

<u>The levels of organisation are</u>

Domain: Eukarya

Kingdom Animalia

Phylum :Chordata

Explanation:

They all share these levels of organisation because;

<u>for  the Domain Eukarya, they have;</u>

→multi-cellular cells containing   nucleus; and  other membrane bound organelle.e.g Mitochondrial.

→their  DNA located in the   nucleus  packaged as linear chromosomes bounded by histone proteins.

→mode of reproduction which is  sexual.

They share Kingdom Animalia because;

→they have multi-cellular, specialised cells, bounded by plasma membranes.

→they have specialized  tissues, organs, and system.

→they all undergo <u>heterotrophic mode of nutrition</u> <u>as evident in the question 'that they must consume plants and animals as source of energy'</u>

<u>→they exchanged communication by nervous ssytem and </u>

<u>→ use homeostatic mechanisms to regulate water balance of the body through the kidney.</u>

<u>→Humans,Rabbits,and whales are</u><u> VIVIPAROUS; they give birth to young ones alive.</u>

→Most fishes lay eggs to reproduce, they are said to be <u>Ovoviviparous.</u>

<u>They belong to phylum Chordata because ;</u>

<u>→they  all have noto chord;</u> which serve as template for axial skeleton.

<u>dorsal hollow nerve cord </u>-template for the brain and spinal cord

<u>→pharyngeal slits- </u>templates for gill aches in bony fishes and components of inner ear in land animals.

<u>→ tail</u> length varies  in these organisms.
