Which type of solution will cause cells to swell, or even to burst?

Biology
1 answer:
Inga [223]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

(b) Hypotonic solution

Explanation:

  • Any solution having lower osmotic pressure as compared to another solution is called as a hypotonic solution and the reason that a solution is hypotonic is that it has more water and lesser dissolved solute in it.
  • If a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the amount of water content in the cell would be lesser as compared to that of the solution and hence, the water will enter the cell due to which the cell will swell and may even burst.
  • The water molecules can enter the cell through the semipermeable membrane and in case of plant cells, the presence of cell wall may prevent it bursting, however, the animal cells lack the cell wall and hence if kept in hypotonic solution for long these cells may burst.

imagine that you have crossed two types of peonies, one with purple flowers and long stems, and the other with white flowers and
Misha Larkins [42]

After crossing over of peonies, one with purple flowers and long stems, and the other with white flowers and short stems we will get the number of offspring 83 with purple flowers and short stems; 29 with purple flowers and long stems; 26 with white flowers and short stems; and 9 with white flowers and long stems.

A dominant allele is one that nullifies the effects of a recessive allele. The allele that is covered up by the dominant allele is known as a recessive allele.

This shows that a plant with purple flowers and long stems is carrying a dominant allele that masks the effect of the recessive allele in a plant with white flowers and short stems.

Which organisms, out of fish, chicks, mouse, and human embryos, would be more closely related and which would be less closely re
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

the chicks and mouse would be losely conected because they have more of the same gentic material and fish and humans would havwe the same since they kind act like the same because The recent advances in developmental biology described  have established the central importance of a small number of highly conserved signal transduction pathways that mediate cell interactions crucial for animal physiology, reproduction, and development. It seems likely that many developmental toxicants might affect development by acting on those pathways. Application of the methods that have been so successful in elucidating them should now allow scientists to investigate that possibility and to determine the mechanisms by which developmental toxicants act. This chapter reviews the experimental approaches primarily responsible for the recent advances in knowledge about animal development and discusses how those approaches might be applied to developmental toxicology. Chapter 8 discusses how those approaches might lead to improved qualitative and quantitative risk assessment.

What is the most specific taxonomic classification of a cat?
adelina 88 [10]
The most specific would be felis catus. That is the name of the species in biology, and there are no more taxonomic divides after species.

Which of the following statement is true
kow [346]
<h2><u>STATEMENTS</u></h2>

The correct statement among the given answers is letter <u>d. an object in motion will remain in motion.</u>

<h2><u>WHY? </u></h2>

In reality, object that is in motion (like a ball) will remain in motion unless it's stopped by something (a wall or any force).

This is stated in the first law of motion by Sir Isaac Newton -- an object in motion will remain in motion unless an outside force acted upon the object.
