Answer:

Out of, shrink

Explanation:

Water would move outside the cell due to osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of a solvent, water, in this case through a membrane from a region of high concetration to a region with less concentration .

The water molecules would move through the semi-pearmeable membrane from the region of high concentration (the bag) to a region with less concentration (the cup), thus, <u>equalizing the water concentration inside and outside the bag</u>. Since there is a higher concentration of salt outside, water will move out of the bag to equalize the concentration.

The result of this water movement would be an incurred bag or cell, hence, the cell would shrink.

Answer:

Horizontal gene transfer

Explanation:

Horizontal gene transfer or lateral gene transfer is when an organisms of different species can acquire a gene from a different one. This process is well understood in bacteria and is responsible for the appearence of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Bacteria can take DNA fragments through a process known as transformation, but this is less common in eukaryotes. Gene transfer agents like viruses could carry the gene from one specimen to the other. Another way could be Horizontal transposon transfer but the exact mechanisms behind it are still under research.

This would actually be known to originate in the "nucleic acid". This would have nothing to do with the DNA it's self, and also protein has nothing to do with it also.<span>Nucleic Acid would be small particals in the cells that would consists of molecules would some sort of chain which would then lead to the DNA, but it would actually have not resemblance of the nucleic acid at any point.
