Solution concentration can be described in terms of tonicity. Solutions are hypertonic, isotonic, or hypotonic to cells. A hyper

tonic is one that has a greater concentration of solute outside the cell and therefore a lower concentration. Water will leave the cell, to the outside environment. This is one reason why organisms that live in fresh water cannot survive in salt water, the ocean. Water will leave the organism’s cells and eventually the cells will undergo plasmolysis and the organisms will die. An isotonic solution is a balanced solution. That is, the solution concentration is balanced with the solution inside the cell. Finally, when a cell is surrounded by a hypotonic solution, concentration of solute is greater inside the cell, concentration of water greater outside. Water moves into the cell and the cell swells. If enough water enters, the cell can burst.
On Day 2, the egg was placed in 10% salt water. Based on the student data, what type of solution would we label 10% salt water in this case?
A) hypertonic
B) hypotonic
C) isotonic
D) saline

Explain the relationship between mutations, adaptations, natural selection, and extinctio
vladimir1956 [14]
Mutations are like genetic mutations. Say a bird species may usually have a orange beak but one bird was born with blue, that’s a mutation.
Adaptations are things you adapt to like plant species have adapted over the year to receive less and less water to live.
Natural selection is basically ‘killing off’ the weaker ones. Say a bird species has broad wings but mutations happened over time leading them to have small wings that do not allow flight, they may eventually all die off due to that. Extinction is if al those birds were to die off from that mutation.
