Answer: The correct answer for the blank is- hypertonic solution.

A hypertonic solution is the one that contains higher solute concentration as compared to solvent. When a cell is placed in hypertonic solution, it will loose water through osmosis ( as water always moves from an area of low solute concentration to an area where solute concentration is comparatively higher).

Thus, animal cell will shrink ( due to loss of water) when placed in a hypertonic solution.

I would say B. Hypertonic solution because it causes the water to leave the cell by the osmosis.

What causes hyperpolarization of a neuronal membrane?.
zalisa [80]

The cause of hyperpolarization of a neuronal membrane is the flow of positive ions out of the opening channel of the neuronal membrane.

What is hyperpolarization?

This can be defined as when the membrane potential becomes more negative at a particular spot on the neuron’s membrane.

The cause of hyperpolarization is when the flow positive ions out of the opening channel of the neuronal membrane can cause hyperpolarization.

Examples: Opening of channels that lets K+ flows out of the neuronal membrane or let's CL- flow into the neuronal membrane can cause hyperpolarization.
