Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Osmosis refers to the procedure by which the molecules of water move from the area where they are highly concentrated to the area where they are present in low concentration via a semipermeable membrane. One use of osmosis is that it provides support to plants.  

A hypotonic solution refers to a kind of solution, which possess more molecules of solvent, in the given case it is water and fewer molecules of solute. The freshwater is hypotonic to plant cells, therefore, the cells of the plant captivate water osmotically, and its size increases and become turgid. This produces an external opposite pressure, which is equivalent to the wall pressure that maintains the plant's upright position.

❖ The correct answer choice is 25%. If you cross Bb and Bb in a punnett square, you get BB, Bb, Bb, bb. All of these are dominant besides bb (which is blue eyes and recessive) so 75% is brown eyes and 25% is blue eyes.
