Answer:

2 % of NaCl concentration

The solution is hypertonic to human cells

Explanation:

% Concentration = (g solute / g solution) * 100

Therefore

% Concentration of NaCl = (2 g NaCl/ 100 g solution) * 100

The concentration of the solution equals 2 %

Isotonic solutions for human red cells have a concentration of 0.9 % of NaCl.  A concentration of 2 % of NaCl is above 0.9 %, so the solution is hypertonic, since you have more concentration of solute (NaCl) outside the cell, than inside the cell ( inside the side you have only 0.9 % NaCl). So the cell will shrink.

Some plant leaves have extensions from their upper epidermal surfaces known as ________. A)trichomes B)cuticles C)pericycles D)n
Nat2105 [25]

The correct answer is option (A) trichomes.

Trichomes are the fine extensions from the epidermal surfaces covering the plant body. They are the result of epidermal cell division. They can be unicellular, multicellular and even glandular. They are characteristically  present on the epidermal surfaces of leaves and roots. They reflect the solar radiation and help in mainitaining the internal temperature and reducing water loss. In roots, they absorb water and minerals and in leaves, they reduce water loss, lower the plant temperature. Plants may use trichomes to detect herbivore attacks as a defense mechanism.
