Net movement of molecules across the nuclear membrane until the number of molecules on each side is nearly equal

Explanation:

The net spontaneous movement of the molecules of a solvent  through the selective membrane to an area of higher concentration of the solvent is the process of Osmosis.  

By this process in a solvent separates the 2 solutions of various concentrations. The pressure through which the movements were initiated is the ‘osmotic pressure’. The membrane should be permeable for molecule movements.

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The information is not sufficient to support this asumption

Explanation:

To unequivocally determine the existence of selection acting on this trait (size), it is necessary to carry out an experiment in which the sample size should be statistically significant (N sample for each group > 50). Moreover, it is also important to include negative controls (i.e., individuals with an average size between both groups) in the experiment.

n200080 [17]

Answer:

Polar Bears feed on seals. So, polar bears and seals share a prey predator relationship.  If one species cannot then adapt an appropriate defense, they may go extinct. In this way, the predator prey relationship often forms and "evolutionary arms race", in which eats species rapidly evolves to counter the other.

Explanation:

Complete the paragraph based on this food web: Polar bears feed on seals. So, polar bears and seals share a _prey predator_.Climate change has caused ice caps to melt in colder regions where polar bears live. This change has caused them to hunt less. This situation will lead to_?extinction?_ 1 prey-predator relationship mutual relationship parasitic relationship. 2 less biomass in the quaternary level increased biomass in the quaternary level less biomass in the primary level.

If one species cannot then adapt an appropriate defense, they may go extinct. In this way, the predator prey relationship often forms and "evolutionary arms race", in which eats species rapidly evolves to counter the other.

In a certain breed of plants, dark green is determined by the dominant gene 'G' and light green is determined by the recessive g
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The answer is 300.

Explanation:

When we cross GG and gg, 100% of the offspring will be heterozygous. If the heterozygotes show 75% penetrance meaning that there is a 75% probability that the plant that has the G gene will actually show it in it's phenotype.

So that means that 75% of the offspring should have dark green color, which means that 300 plants will have the expected phenotype and 100 will not.

I hope this answer helps.
