Answer:
The correct option is A. The cell is sitting in a hypertonic solution.
Explanation:
A hypertonic solution is a solution in which there are more number of solutes present in the solution than inside the cell. The solutes then tend to pass into the cell through diffusion from the solution.
As it can be seen in the diagram, the concentration of salt is more in the solution i.e 40%. Hence, the salt from the solution enters into the cell by diffusion and has a concentration of 10% inside the cell which shows the cell to be placed in a hypertonic environment.
Answer:
All the statements are true except the second i. e. the soil quality in an ecosystem Does not matter as much as soil quantity.
Explanation:
In an ecosystem both quality and quantity of water is very important. If the quality of water is not suitable, that it contains polluted substances so the health of the organism such as fishes and other aquatic animals will adversely affected and sometimes dealth occurs and the ecosystem will be negatively affected.
From studies and research, I believe the proper question would be:
"How do the animals satisfy their need for water?" or "How long do the animals live?"
Explanation 1:
When studying the desert, asking "Can you buy the animals in pet stores?" is not going to help you find information about the desert because it is not a question to get information about the desert, only information if you just buy it at your local pet shop.
Explanation 2:
Asking "How many offspring do the animals have?" does help us learn about animals, but we are trying to find information on the structure of the desert in which the animals live in. We are not looking for how many children the animals will have because it doesn't fully relate to the question we would be asking.
Side Note: Offsprings mean children.
