Unique feature of osmosis is that (1) energy is required
(2) it involves movement of solutes
(3) it occurs across membranes only
(4) it is seen only in animals

I believe the answer is (3)

Explanation:

"Osmosis is a special type of diffusion, namely the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane"

it would affect precipitation by causing flooding in some areas of the world due to climate increasing, causing the glaciers in the northern and southern pole of our planet to melt.

i wish you would have provided choices to simplify it and allow me to give an exact answer.

try using substitution:

x + y - 6 = x - y. (i'm not giving you the exact answer). since 0 = x - y, then sub 0 in the equation with x - y. combine your like terms, and then use inverse operations, and you'll have your answer.
