A potassium ion gradient is set up in insect Malpighian tubules through an active transport process. As a result, potassium concentration is higher in the lumen of the tubules than in hemolymph. How would the potassium gradient affect water movement?

A) Water would be forced out of the lumen of the Malpighian tubules through an osmotic gradient.
B) The potassium gradient would have no effect on water movement.
C) There would be a net movement of water into the lumen of the tubules.
D) Water would be conserved, forming a hypertonic solution in the Malpighian tubules

many phylogenetic trees have a single lineage at the base representing a common ancestor. a lineage that evolved early from the root and remains unbranched is called basal taxon. when two lineages stem from the same branch point, they are called sister taxa.

can i get the brainliest pls

explanation:

the answer is: trichonympha lives in the gut of termites and digests cellulose eaten by the termite.

this is an example of a symbiotic association of a protozoan with its mode of association.

hope i
