what is diffussion ?
Defines osmosis?
what is hypotonic solution?
Answer:
Diffusion is the net movement of anything from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is driven by a gradient in concentration. The concept of diffusion is widely used in many fields, including physics, chemistry, biology, sociology, economics, and finance.

noun
1.
BIOLOGY•CHEMISTRY
a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one.
2.
the process of gradual or unconscious assimilation of ideas, knowledge, etc.
A hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solutes than another solution. In biology, a solution outside of a cell is called hypotonic if it has a lower concentration of solutes relative to the cytosol. Due to osmotic pressure, water diffuses into the cell, and the cell often appears turgid, or bloated.

What are the gametes that would be formed for the following genotype: Aa?
Answer:
An individual with the genotype Aa can make two types of gametes: A and a. Since this is a random process, the individual will, on average, make equal numbers of each gamete. (Frequency of 1/2 for each gamete). A second individual with genotype Aa can make two types of gametes: A and a.
While mRNA strands are being created a sequence is sometimes miscopied. What will be the effect of this on the cell?
Group of answer choices
The damaged mRNA may cause cell death.
Translation may not take place.
Future transcription will not take place.
Ribosomes may be destroyed.
Answer:
If the sequence of mRNA is miscopied, it will change the sequence of amino acids of the protein. Consequently, the protein may become non-functional.

Several examples of antisense RNA regulating translation in bacterial cells have been discovered. Molecular geneticists have also used antisense RNA to artificially control transcription in both bacterial and eukaryotic genes. To inhibit the transcription of a bacterial gene with antisense RNA, what sequence might the antisense RNA contain
Answer:
An antisense sequence with complementary to the target mRNA encoded by the gene of interest
Explanation:
An antisense sequence is usually a short RNA sequence specifically designed in the laboratory to bind by complementary to the DNA/RNA sequence of interest (usually a target mRNA) whose expression is desired to be inhibited. When an antisense bind to its target mRNA, the antisense sequence acts to block translation, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis. Moreover, it has been shown that the double-stranded antisense-RNA complexes may also increase the susceptibility of the target sequence to RNase H digestion.

Which organism obtains energy without directly depending on another organism
The organism that obtains energy without directly depending on another organism is a PLANT.
PLANTS are organisms which are capable of manufacturing their own food through the process of photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis is defined as the process by which plants use low energy containing inorganic compounds (example carbondioxide and water) in the presence of sunlight, as energy, to produce high energy organic compounds such as sugar. These sugar are used as source of energy in the plant cells.
While animals are the organisms that directly depend on plants( another organism)
Therefore, the organism that obtains energy without directly depending on another organism is a PLANT.

which term describes a pure substance that made up of only one type of atom
Answer:
Element
Explanation:
In chemistry, two substances are referred to as PURE SUBSTANCES. One of the pure substances is ELEMENT and the other is compound. An element is a pure substance that contains only one type of atom.
In an element, only one type of atom makes up the structure. For example, H2 (hydrogen) and O2 are examples of elements because they contain only hydrogen and oxygen atoms respectively

1. Predict: How do you expect the spread of a foodborne disease to be similar to and different
from the spread of a person-to-person disease?
PLEASE ANSWER
Answer and Explanation:
The transmission of diseases through food and through people to people, are similar because both are caused by human contact with infectious parasitic agents such as bacteria and viruses. However, it is possible to notice some differences between these two types of transmissions.
Transmission of disease through food occurs when an individual eats contaminated food or drinks contaminated liquid. This contamination occurs due to the lack of hygiene of the handlers and storage problems, which can allow microorganisms, mostly bacteria, to grow in the food. Thus, when the contaminated food is ingested, the microorganisms will release toxins in the stomach that will cause disease. In the case of water, contamination can also happen due to the lack of basic sanitation and the incorrect dumping of garbage and human waste.
Diseases transmitted from person to person can occur in many different ways. One of the best known ways is through the contact of a healthy person with salivary goths or other body fluids of a person with the disease. However, this transmission can also occur through the contact of a healthy individual with the feces of a sick individual and even with physical contact with a sick individual.

Bone mineral density (BMD) is a measure of bone strength. Studies show that BMD declines after age 45. The impact of exercise may increase BMD.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
As you age, your body may reabsorb calcium and phosphate from your bones instead of keeping these minerals in your bones. This makes your bones weaker. When this process reaches a certain stage, it is called osteoporosis. Many times, a person will fracture a bone before they even know they have bone loss.

The extensive size of the fires that burned Yellowstone National Park in 1988 caught both land managers and ecologists by surprise. Many forests suffered intense infernos that removed virtually all vegetation. Some speculated that the park would never recover. Based on what you learned and disturbance and succession, is it likely that the park was irrevocably altered
Answer:
It is not possible that the park has been irrevocably altered.
Explanation:
The fires are part of the ecology of Yellowstone National Park, and there is a very low risk that this park will be irreversibly modified after a fire. It is scientifically proven that Yellowstone has recovered from fires in a period of thirty years and that the risk of this recovery not happening is very low. In addition, the natural fires that occur in Yellowstone are, in a way, important for the maintenance of the park's ecosystem, since they are able to break the seed dormancy that are in the soil, in addition to promoting the opening of the serine pine cones.
Seed dormancy is the difficulty of germinating that some seeds present, even in an environment with favorable conditions for germination.
What does a population pyramid represents?
A
a population’s trophic levels
B
a population’s age-sex structure
C
a population’s growth rate
D
a population’s dispersal pattern
Answer:
B: a population’s age-sex structure
Explanation:
A population pyramid is a way to visualize two variables: age and sex.
They are used by demographers, who study populations. A population pyramid is a graph that shows the distribution of ages across a population divided down the center between male and female members of the population. Expansive pyramids mean that the population does not increase much in total number and has many young people.
