The blood cell will lose water and will undergo lysis.

Cell membrane is permeable to water and can get/lose water via osmosis. Osmosis is induced by the gradient of concentration of the solution. In this case, the 10M salt solution has a very high oncotic pressure that it will attract nearby water. That means the water inside the cells will be taken into the solution and cell will continue to shrink and then die.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

any time a source of energy is obtain using natural means, the 10 % rule will apply. 10 % rule means when energy is passed in an ecosystem from one trophic level to next, only 10% of the  energy  will be passed on. A trophic level is the position of organism in the food chain.

So Quaternary consumers are at the top position in the food chain, they will receive less energy from the food as compared to the primary consumers which are at the bottom of the food chain. so when getting less food and less energy, Because of this, the populations of Quaternary consumers are usually the smallest out of the populations in the food chain.
