The process that results in Ms. Milly’s wilting lettuce becoming firm is osmosis. The explanation is below.

OSMOSIS:

  • Osmosis is the process by which water molecules move from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration via a semipermeable membrane.

  • According to this question, Ms. Milly, occasionally sprinkles water on her wilting lettuce and notices that they became firm.

This has to do with osmosis ( movement of water). The water is a hypotonic solution compared to the lettuce which cells are hypertonic. This causes the water to move in the lettuces cells causing the lettuce to have more structure because there is more turgid pressure.

How does sleeping pills react or are bad to the body​
spayn [35]

Hi there.

Sleeping pills can be affective, one common side-affects are; "slower breathing" -- slower breathing is a common factor, as a side affect. Another would be "depressed breathing".

These happen for many reasons, forcing your body to sleep isn't on the "healthy" side of your body.

Sometimes, people do get addicted to sleeping pills; and take them every night and can lead to small or major health issues.

An unwanted pill that goes into your body every night will cause unwanted side affects. That can be very harmful!
