How would you expect osmosis to affect the water balance in these organisms?

The water balance is the relation or balance between the amount of water entering the organism by intake liquids and food and the total output or loss of water lost from the body by different ways such as the kidneys, lungs, bowels, and skin.

Other than water there is the constant input of electrolytes also occurs into the system. Osmotic pressure and the process of osmosis help in ensuring that optimal concentrations of electrolytes and non-electrolytes are maintained in the cells. The excess water or electrolytes, move out of the cells by the osmosis through the semi-permeable membrane that is the cell membrane here.

answer: after carbon dioxide enters the leaf through stomata it moves into the mesophyll cells where photosynthesis occurs and glucose is constructed. respiration occurs when glucose (sugar produced during photosynthesis) combines with oxygen to produce useable cellular energy.

i'm thinking (a) to keep sand in place; ////////////

explanation: a sand fence or sandbreak, like a snow fence, is used to force windblown, drifting sand to accumulate in a desired place. sand fences are employed to control erosion, sand dune stabilization, keep sand off roadways, and to recruit new material in desert areas.
