If a blood cell is placed into a solution of 10M salt (highly salty) what would you expect to occur?

Biology

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.

Lilit [14]

DNA in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells is collected into  a chromatin.

A chromatin is a complex of nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) and proteins called histones which condense to form a chromosome  during cell division.

In eukaryotic cells, it is found within the cell nucleus while in prokaryotes, it is found inside the nucleoid .

 Its functions are;

1.  to package DNA into a smaller volume to fit in the cell.

2. strengthen the DNA to allow mitosis and meiosis.

3. acts as a mechanism to control expression

The chromatin is easily recognized through staining. Its name literally means "colored material."
