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.

Answer:

75% brown, 25% white

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for color in chickens. The allele for brown color (B) is dominant over the allele for white color (b).

According to this question, a brown rooter with genotype 'BB' was crossed with a white hen (bb). The offsprings in the F1 generation will all possess the 'Bb' genotype and be brown colored. However, if these F1 offsprings are self-mated i.e Bb × Bb, the proportion of F2 offsprings will be 1BB, 2Bb, 1bb.

Since BB, Bb and Bb offsprings are Brown in color and bb is white in color, this means that the expected phenotypic appearance of the F2 offsprings will be:

¾ or 75% brown and ¼ or 25% white
