The answer is the second one (Osmosis): the process by which solvent flows through a semipermeable membrane from a dilute (hypotonic) solution to a concentrated (hypertonic) solution.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Tonicity: This term refers to the relative concentration of solutes in a solution outside a cell compared to inside the cell, which affects the cell's volume and pressure. It does not describe the process of solvent movement.
  2. Osmosis: This is the correct answer. Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules through a semipermeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration (hypotonic) to a region of higher solute concentration (hypertonic).
  3. Dilution: This term refers to the process of reducing the concentration of a solute in a solution, usually by adding more solvent. It does not involve the movement of solvent through a membrane.
  4. Dialysis: This is a process where solutes and solvent are separated by a semipermeable membrane, often used in medical treatments to remove waste products from the blood. It is not specifically the process described in the question.

Summary: Osmosis is the process by which solvent flows through a semipermeable membrane from a dilute (hypotonic) solution to a concentrated (hypertonic) solution.

With regard to applying willful to designate a situation, which statement is most accurate? Identify the methods that can be used to establish rapport and trust. (Select all that apply) □ Listen only, the best amount of force and ensure that it is justified both legally and in writing □ Offer sincere empathy and listening skills, empathy when appropriate, and treat others with a degree of respect □ To be successful at de-escalation, officers must clearly state their authority over citizens Empathy is understanding of the emotions or feelings of yourself and others □ Self-awareness □ Situational awareness □ Emotional intelligence □ Which of the following best describes EI? (Select all that apply) Officer A is an exemplar 10 year veteran and one of the most beloved and admired officers in the Department. Officer A is an FTO to a new recruit, who is struggling. The FTO has tried patience, understanding, remedial training, and has given the recruit ample opportunities to succeed. As such, the words and actions of Officer A carry great weight in the department. One day after a particularly trying day with the recruit, Officer A says to other officers in the station, "This recruit is a waste. He'll never make it." What is most likely to happen as a result? □ The other officers will likely agree with Officer A and cast the recruit in a negative light □ The recruit will likely overhear the comments and his self-esteem and performance will suffer □ The recruit will be given a chance to respond to the criticism □ Officer A's opinion will be ignored as he is not in charge of the recruit's training □ Nothing, as this is a normal part of the training process

Luke works at a store and earns a fixed amount of 126 plus 56.39 per sale. Noah works at a different store and earns a fixed amount of 333 plus 28.24 per sale. They both made the same number of sales, but Luke earned 5/3 as much money as Noah this week. Write the equation that can be used to find the number of sales Luke made this week. Represent the number of sales as x and don't use any symbols.
