Explain how drinking through a straw illustrates fluid flowing from high-pressure to low-pressure​
Vilka [71]

Drinking through a straw shows fluid flowing from high pressure to low pressure in 2 ways. The first is how it shows high pressure as you stuck on the straw. This increases the pressure and brings the fluid to your mouth. If this pressure is kept you can successfully pick up the straw filled with water and have none come out. This demonstrates low pressure when you stop ducking and the fluid falls back down the straw into your cup.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

is hypotonic to the protozoans

Explanation:

The constant influx of water from the outside environment of the cell tells that <u>the environment is hypotonic to the cell</u>.

<em>A hypotonic environment is one with a lower solute concentration than the cytosol. Hence, water osmotically moves from the environment into the cells of the protozoans. The water needs to constantly be removed from the cells, otherwise, they will become turgid and lyse away their contents. </em>
