Answer:

The sharklet film creates a phenomenon reffed to as  mechanotransduction.

Explanation:

It was discovered that sharks do not experience fouling , their skin is made in a distinct manner with diamond patterns that will discourage micro organism from settling on it.

Through the process of mechanotransduction, mechanical stress is created to the bacteria whereby they cannot attach themselves to the surface because it makes them to produce more energy to settle on the surface thus they may keep off from the surface. In this manner, bacteria is inhibited from attacking these areas protected by the sharklet film.

quester [9]

In a saturated solution, extra solid X would remain solid, dissolve in an unsaturated solution, and crystallize in a supersaturated one.

A solution is said to be saturated when there is a maximum amount of solute present that has been dissolved in the solvent. As a result, the system is in an equilibrium between the dissolved and undissolved solutes: A solution is considered to be unsaturated if the solute concentration is less than the equilibrium solubility. A supersaturated solution is one that has more solute than is necessary to generate a saturated solution at a given temperature.
