Answer:

Meat for food and small size for pets

Explanation:

Artificial selection is the process by which humans control desirable phenotypic characteristics in plants and animals by applying selective breeding techniques to perpetuate these traits in the population. A example of artificial selection includes the process of domestication of modern pigs (<em>Sus domesticus</em>). It has been shown that the modern pigs derived from the wild boar (<em>Sus scrofa</em>), which were domesticated separately 9,000 years ago in China and Western Asia. For example, by artificial selection, humans have domesticated moderns pigs to use them as livestock for direct consumption (i.e., for their meat). Moreover, there are pig populations that have been artificially selected as pets (e.g., miniature Vietnamese Pot-Bellied pigs).

Help please thanks..​

Answer:

7) the environment is hypotonic because it is less concentrated than the inside of the cell

8.)the mass would decrease because the stuff inside the cell (which is more concentrated in comparison) would diffuse across the cell membrane into the environment in order to maintain equilibrium

9.) Diffusion in order to maintain equilibrium (moving things across a barrier from a more concentrated area to a less concentrated area in order to have an equal concentration on each side) does not require energy. However, moving matter out of the cell in Diagram C would require energy because it involves moving mass from a less concentrated area to a more concentrated area.
