Answer:

Osmosis is a form of passive transport that involves the movement of water or other solvents through a semi-permeable membrane into an area of higher solute concentration.

For example:

Plant root hairs absorb water from the ground. The roots have a higher solute concentration than soil which is why water flows into the roots.

Which of the following populations would be considered r-selected? Black Widow Spiders - they produce 1000s of offspring and few
belka [17]

Answer:

Option 1.

Explanation:

r-selected species may be defined as the species that has higher growth rate, shows less parental care and the rate of survival of the off spring is low as compared  with k selected species.

Black widow spiders have the ability to produce 1000 offspring. Their chances of survival are extremely low and only few species of black widow spiders survive. Hence, black widow spider is r-selected species.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).

What is a difference between Newston’s laws of motion and Elinstein’s theory of relativity ?
DENIUS [597]
<span>Sir Isaac Newton quantified the gravity between two objects when he formulated his three laws of motion. ... Yet Newton's laws assume that gravity is an innate force of an object that can act over a distance

</span>

In 1905, Albert Einstein determined that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and that the speed of light in a vacuum was independent of the motion of all observers. This was the theory of special relativity. It introduced a new framework for all of physics and proposed new concepts of space and time.

Einstein then spent 10 years trying to include acceleration in the theory and published his theory of general relativity in 1915. In it, he determined that massive objects cause a distortion in space-time, which is felt as gravity.

Infer why it is more difficult to make an antiviral drug that fights a virus that replicates through the lysogenic cycle than it
jekas [21]

Answer:

In the lysogenic cycle, the viral genome gets incorporated into the host genome and replicates with the host genome. In the lysogenic cycle, no proteins and enzymes of the virus are formed while in the lytic cycle protein of viral capsid form and new phages generate in the host cell.

So as the viral genome integrates into the host genome in the lysogenic cycle, therefore, it is difficult for any drug to differentially act on the viral genome. So there are great chances for drugs to target the host genome in the host cell.  

But in virus that replicates through lytic cycle drugs can selectively act on viral enzyme and proteins. Therefore it is difficult to make a drug that affects lysogenic virus.
