Explain will water move in, out, or both if a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution​

Biology

STALIN [3.7K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<em>Water will move out of a cell.</em>

Explanation:

A hypertonic solution will have higher solute concentration and lesser solvent concentration. If a cell is placed in such a solution, then the concentration of the solvent will be more inside of the cell as compared to outside of the cell. As a result, the solvent will move out of the cell. If an excess of solvent is lost, the cell might shrink to dangerous levels.

Hence, from the above description we can justify that water will move out of a cell which is placed in a hypertonic solution.

The same gene that causes various coat patterns in wild and domesticated cats also causes a cross-eyed condition in these cats,
sergey [27]

Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

The given example in the question of the wild cat's coat patterns and the cross eyed condition are caused by the same gene. The cross eyed condition is a disadvantage for the wild cats because it affects their vision and therefore their ability to hunt and feed. But it also causes the coat pattern that leads to the increase of feline population over time. This is a result of a compromise between the two traits for their affects on the population. We can say that phenotype is often the result of compromise because not all traits support the same result.

I hope this answer helps.
