Answer:

The correct option is 'a'

If osmotic pressure increases when a mussel is submerged in the water,the blood osmotic  pressure also increases.

Explanation:

Mussels are bivalves that are found in fresh water as well as marine water.

They have bluish blood and small heart pumps the blood.Some mussels have red blood which contain hemoglobin that carry oxygen rather than hemocyanin.

The mussels show increase in blood chloride level and amino acid when the osmotic pressure of the water increases.

Submerging the mussel in the aquatic environment increases osmotic pressure of the mussel.

An endoscopy that is undertaken to the level of the mid transverse colon would be coded as a Colonoscopy. A colonoscopy is a test using a thin flexible tube called a colonoscope to look closer at the colon; by looking closely at the inner lining of the large intestine, being the rectum and colon, doctors are able to further identify ulcers, tumors, bleeding, and inflammation, which other tests would not be able to discover as accurately. Hope that helps.
