Because the blood osmotic pressure is isotonic

Osmosis happens only when there are differences in the concentration of the ion. If the concentration is same, called isotonic, the osmotic pressure will be same and no water will be moved. 
This is why resuscitation fluid mostly used isotonic solution(0.9%NaCl), to prevent osmosis to the cells.

If the sperm cells of fish have 12 chromosomes how many chromosomes would be found in the cells forming the gills of the fish
lisabon 2012 [21]
Sex cells will always contain half of the number of chromosomes needed for a being. So if a fishes sperm cell contains 12 chromosomes and the ovum also contains 12 chromosomes then when fused together they will have 24 chromosomes in total. 
In order for the process of the fish to even be made the sperm and ovum must be fused together. Therefore the number of chromosomes that would be found in the cells forming the gills is 24 chromosomes.

What will happen to a population of predators if there is a sudden, temporary increase in the number of prey?
alekssr [168]
The number of predators and preys change from time to time following cycles. Whenever there is fewer prey, predators start dying because they have not enough to eat; however, that provokes the population of prey to be increased while there are fewer predators. So if suddenly the number of prey gets bigger, regardless of the number of predators, the cycles get disturbed by this sudden occurrence. The predators will get more to hunt, therefore getting more violent.
