You conclude that the sucrose solution is hypotonic to the potato cells.

Explanation:

A solution is said to be hypotonic with respect to other solution if its concentration is less than the other solution to which it is compared.

A  concentration of solvent molecule in a hypotonic solution is higher than hypertonic solution so solvent moves from hypotonic to hypertonic solution due to osmosis.

The increase in weight of potato shows that it has gained water i.e. the water has entered from the sucrose solution to cells. So, the sucrose solution is hypotonic to the cell sap.

The biomass pyramids for phytoplankton and trees in their respective environments are _______.
ss7ja [257]

The right answer is opposite.

In the air, the biomass of primary producers is often much higher than the biomass of consumers, especially in forests where a large part of the biomass is wood. In aquatic environments and especially oceanic, the biomass of primary producers (phytoplankton) is generally lower than that of consumers but this biomass is rapidly renewed.
