Osmosis is the process in which water molecules move from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower potential down a water potential gradient across a partially permeable membrane. It doen't requires any additional energy to do this work.  So, Osmosis is a Passive.   Active and passive transport processes are two ways molecules and other materials move in and out of cells and cross intracellular membranes. 1. Active transport is the movement of molecules or ions against a concentration gradient (from an area of lower to higher concentration), which does not ordinarily occur, so enzymes and energy are required. 2. Passive transport is the movement of molecules or ions from an area of higher to lower concentration. Passive transport occurs because of the entropy of the system, so additional energy isn't required for it to occur. 3. Active transport requires energy to proceed, while passive transport does not require the input of extra energy to occur.

Answer: A) promise to pay for goods later. Explanation: If as a business, you buy goods or services on credit from a supplier (accounts payable) then the supplier will supply the goods and business will incur a liability to the supplier for that amount, but no cash will change hands at that stage. Some of those shop keepers allowed regular "trustworthy" customers to purchase items without having the full payment. Hence, Buying on credit means that no actual money has changed hands.

Answer: A) not less than 60 deg Explanation: Potentially hazardous foods are foods that might contain food poisoning bacteria and are capable of supporting growth of these bacteria or formation of toxins to levels that are unsafe for consumers, if the foods are not stored at correct temperatures. Toxins are poisonous chemicals produced by some types of bacteria. The food can be left at room temperature until it reaches 60 deg C because food-poisoning bacteria will not multiply at 60 deg C or above. However, do not leave food cooling at room temperature unless you are sure that the temperature of the food is still at least above 60 C.

Answer: D) Dry Land Farming Explanation:

(1+9+6+8+3) x (1+9+6+8+3) x (1+9+6+8+3) = 19683

Answer: B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere Explanation: During daylight hours, plants capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it to make carbohydrates which is stored as starch in the plant. Animals feed on the plants and extract the carbohydrates through their digestive system. The carbohydrates, namely glucose, are used by the animals for production of ATP through cellular respiration.   Cellar respiration in the animals produces carbon dioxide as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, from where it is again captured by plants and the cycle is repeated.   Hence, option B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere is the path possible in carbon cycle.

Answer: A) Distance Explanation: Light Year is related to Distance. It is the unit of Distance. It is about 9.5 Trillion Kms or 5.9 Trillion miles.   It is the distance that light travels in vaccum in one julian year i.e, 365.25 days.

Answer: D) 34 Explanation: Total number of students in the class = 28 + 6 i.e, from top(7-1) 28 + 6 = 34
