Salts and sugars work to preserve foods by creating a

Biology
1 answer:
Ne4ueva [31]4 years ago
7 0

Answer: Hypertonic Environment

Explanation:

The salt solution and sugar solution is used for the process of food preservation as the bacteria and microorganism are not able to grow in such conditions that is being created by the solution.

The amount of the solute is more and the solution is less concentrated. The bacteria cell has less solutes and more solvent.

As per osmosis the water from the salt or sugar solution moves out from bacterial cell shrinks and dies.

This is how the bacterial cell dies and the food is prevented from spoilage.

In normal skeletal muscle tissue, binding of acetylcholine to its receptors at the neuromuscular junction results in:
BARSIC [14]
<span>Answer: Opening of Na+ and K+ Explanation: Acetycholine binding opens Na+ and K+ ion channels in the receptors that allow simultaneous passage of Naâş into the muscle fiber and Kâş out of the muscle fiber. More Naâş ions enter than Kâş ions exit, which produces a local change in the membrane potential called the end plate potential. Binding of acetycholine to receptor proteins opens Na+ and K+ channels resulting in jump in resting membrane potential(RMP) from -90mV to +75mV forming an end-plate potential (EPP).</span>

omeli [17]

Lets understand the given passage.

An ecologist <u>observes that the diet of a bird species consists primarily of large grass seeds</u> (as opposed to smaller grass seeds or the seeds of other herbaceous plants found in the area).

<u>He hypothesizes that the birds are choosing the larger seeds because they have a higher concentrations of nitrogen than do other types of seeds at the site</u><u>.</u>

<u>To test the hypothesis, the ecologist compares the large grass seeds with the other types of seeds, and the results clearly show that the large grass seeds do indeed have a much higher concentration of nitrogen.</u>

No, he cannot conclude that the birds select the larger grass seeds because of their higher concentrations of nitrogen. The hypothesis testing done by the ecologist is incomplete as he failed to set up a control in the experiment. The control would have been the birds feeding on large seeds that lack or are low on nitrogen content. This will establish a relation between the bird's diet and the size of the seeds and the nitrogen content of the seeds. It could be true that birds do not care about the nitrogen content but simply prefer larger seed sizes.

Another problem associated with his field experiment is the failure in noting the beak sizes of the birds. The beak size and shape enable a bird to break and eat seeds. Larger beaks fail at breaking open smaller seeds. This observation would add bird beak size as another variable of the experiment.
