Answer:
Egg is HYPERTONIC
Water in the bowl is HYPOTONIC
The egg will become filled with water over time
Explanation:
Tonicity refers to the ability of an extracellular solution to direct the flow of a solvent (water) in and out a cell. There are three types of tonicity; hypertonic, hypotonic and isotonic. A solution is said to be HYPERTONIC when the concentration of solute in it is higher than its external solution. This is the case of the egg cell that contains 7% salt (solute).
A HYPOTONIC solution is that which contains a lower solute concentration than it's external solution. This is the case of the water in the bowl that contains 3% salt concentration.
Tonicity determines which direction osmosis occurs. Osmosis is the movement of solvent/water from a region of high solvent concentration/low solute to a region of low solvent concentration/high solute concentration via a semi-permeable membrane. In this case, water (solvent) will move through the egg cell membrane (semi-permeable membrane) from the bowl with a low solute concentration into the egg with a high solute concentration. Hence, over time, the egg cell will be filled with water.
Answer:
true
Explanation:
The air that organisms breathe contains particulate matter such as dust, dirt, viral particles, and bacteria that can damage the lungs or trigger allergic immune responses.
Hi it's C.pines

Having two copies of the mutated genes cause sickle cell anemia, but having just one copy does not, and can actually protect against malaria - an example of how mutations are sometimes beneficial.
The majority of mutations have neither negative nor positive effects on the organism in which they occur. These mutations are called neutral mutations. Examples include silent point mutations. They are neutral because they do not change the amino acids in the proteins they encode.
Hope this helped :)
