Answer:
In explanation.
Explanation:
Effect of osmosis on cells:
-Osmosis is the movement of water across a cell membrane. Cells use osmosis to maintain concentration equilibrium (the concentrations of solute inside and outside the cell are equal). Changing the amount of water allows the cells to achieve equilibrium.
Effects of osmosis on tissues:
-Red blood cells placed in a solution with a higher water concentration compared to their contents (eg pure water) will gain water by osmosis, swell up, and burst. Water will diffuse from a higher water concentration outside the cell to a lower water concentration inside the cell.
Hope this helps.
Habitat destruction, and thus habitat fragmentation, is the major cause of declining biodiversity; the second major cause is <u>Invasive Species</u>.
The process by which a natural ecosystem can no longer support its native species is known as habitat destruction. Reduced biodiversity and species abundance result from the displacement or death of the creatures that once occupied the area. The loss of biodiversity is mostly caused by habitat degradation.
An imported organism that overpopulates and damages its new habitat is referred to as an invasive species. Even though the majority of imported species are neutral or helpful to other species, invasive species have a negative impact on habitats and bioregions, harming their ecology, the environment, and/or their economy.
The most frequent methods for invasive plants, animals, microorganisms, and other species to spread to new ecosystems are thought to be human activities like those involved in international trade and the pet trade.

The answer is D.
With mechanical advantage, less work is put in for a better result.
It can apply force in a shorter distance, but increase distance itself.
Options for the question have not been provided. They are as follows:
A) The single intact parcel would have a smaller amount of edge than the 20 separate parcels.
B) The isolated hectare plots increase the ability of individuals to disperse from one habitat to another.
C) The separate 1-hectare plots are less vulnerable to edge effects.
D) The large plot will create more inbreeding in many species.
Answer:
A) The single intact parcel would have a smaller amount of edge than the 20 separate parcels.
Explanation:
In the given case, 20 hectares of land has been allocated to natural habitat. This means that natural flora and fauna will flourish here without any human interference. In this situation it is better to have an intact 20 hectares area at one side of the land, rather than having 20 separately spread out 1 hectare areas. This is because having one large piece of land at one side will reduce the edge effect.
Edges occur where two different habitats meet. While edges can be beneficial when it comes to natural habitats because the boundary habitat increases overall biodiversity, it can be detrimental when the edges are due to human settlements. It will be difficult to avoid human interference as the natural habitats are scattered among human settlements. Each individual plot will also get less area due to which it will be difficult for all the species to accommodate comfortably. Many animals can venture out in search of food which can be dangerous to both animals and humans. It is better to have a big separate land at one corner so that everyone can survive peacefully.
