The type of solution formed is hypertonic.

<h3>What are hypertonic solutions?</h3>

Hypertonic solutions are solutions with higher dissolved solutes as compared to the sap of the cells suspended in them.

Epsom salt is made up largely of magnesium sulfate. Thus, a solution formed by dissolving Epsom salt is water will have more magnesium in it than the cells of the part of the body soaked in it.  

Hence, such a solution is hypertonic.

1. The answer is "<span>the energy required to start the reaction".

</span>This energy is called as activation energy of the reaction. If the activation energy is high, reaction is slow. Enzymes help to carry out the reaction by a new path by reducing the activation energy. But the energy of reactants and the products remain as same as without enzyme.

2. The answer is "reaction in cells would be too slow to sustain life<span>".

</span>If the activation energy is very high for the reaction, then that reaction will be very slow and will require more time<span> to complete the reaction. Then survival is very low. Hence, the roll of enzymes is very important to sustain life.</span>

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

18th of July

Explanation:

Given that each quarter of a moon phase occurs after seven days, hence, if a 1st quarter moon phase appears on the night of July 4th, the approximate date on which a 3rd quarter moon will appear in the night sky on the 18th of July.

This is because, after the first quarter of a moon phase of July 4th, the second quarter of a moon phase will occur on the 11th of July, while the third quarter will occur on the 18th of July.
