Why can evolution in mosquitoes be more easily observed than evolution in a population of squirrels?
djverab [1.8K]
Mosquitoes have a short lifespan and often die quickly due to humans, animals, or environmental causes. They also reproduce in a way that makes it easy to mate and to have as many offspring as possible. And due to their short lifespans, mosquitoes mate a lot more than squirrels.
Squirrels have longer lifespans and life expectancy and mate more like us, in a breeding season.

How are diffusion and osmosis different? A. Osmosis is the movement of proteins. Diffusion is the movement of water. B. Osmosis
stepladder [879]
The answer is B, osmosis is the movement of water. Diffusion is the movement to chemicals and molecules.

Both osmosis and diffusion are movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration of the substance moving to lower concentration down the concentration gradient. However, osmosis is only for the movement of water molecules, while diffusion is for any type of substances including liquid or gas. So we can also say osmosis is a type of diffusion actually.

And also, both of these movement of molecules does not require extra energy, they all happen due to natural tendency.
