The correct answer is hydrocephalus.
Hydrocephalus refers to the condition in which the accumulation of fluid takes place in the ventricles (cavities) deep inside the brain. The excess fluid enhances the size of the ventricles and applies pressure on the brain. The cerebrospinal fluid usually flows via the ventricles and bathes the spinal column and the brain.
This membrane mimics the plasma membrane that is around animal cells. In order to explore how water moves in and out of a cell, one cell was weighed and then submerged in hypertonic solution. The other egg was weighted and submerged in hypotonic solution. It was predicted that the egg submerged in hypertonic solution would decrease in mass. It was predicted that the egg submerged in hypotonic solution would increase in mass.
Explanation:
The outermost covering of an animal cell is the plasma membrane. It is a selectively permeable membrane that allows only selective molecules to pass through it.
A solution having higher concentration of solute than the cell cytoplasm is called a hypertonic solution.
A solution having lower concentration of solute than the cell cytoplasm is called the hypotonic solution.
The movement of water molecules from the region of its higher concentration to the region of its lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.
A cell placed in hypertonic solution will undergo exosmosis so it will lose water and its mass will decrease.
A cell placed in hypotonic solution will undergo endosmosis of water so it will gain water and its mass will increase.
A dog meets all the characerisitcs of life in the following ways - they maintain homeostatis, are made of cells, breathe and have a metabolism, are able to reproduce, pass their traits off to their offsp they grow and change, and and respond to their environment.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
A. Since
B. Because
C. Although
D. For example
<em>Zebra mussels have been known to have a lifespan of six or seven years in the past but recent discoveries have shown that their average lifespan now ranges between one to two years. Hence, the correct word to fill in the gap would be 'Although'. </em>
<em>The correct option is C</em>
