A) The crust and outer part of the mantle make up the lithosphere
The niche of grasshopper would include the plant species it eats.
Explanation:
The niche of an organism is different to that of a habitat. A niche includes the interaction between organisms and the food that they eat, whereas, a habitat is a place where organisms are provided with food, protection and shelter.
Habitat is a place of ecosystem that involves other environmental factors like- rain, sunlight, humidity etc. So, food type eaten by grasshopper would be the description of a niche and not a habitat.
The right answer is A.
Osmosis is a phenomenon that considers only the exchanges between two liquid solutions of different concentrations in liquid phases separated by a semi-permeable wall. Osmosis is a phenomenon of diffusion of matter, demonstrated when solvent molecules pass through a semi-permeable membrane separating two solutions whose solute concentrations are different; the overall transfer of solvent is then from the least concentrated solution (hypotonic medium) to the most concentrated solution (hypertonic medium) to equilibrium (isotonic media).
The diffusion of matter, or chemical diffusion, refers to the natural tendency of a system to render uniform the chemical potential of each of the chemical species it contains.
Chemical diffusion is an irreversible transport phenomenon that tends to homogenize the composition of the medium.
