Answer: The contractile vacuole will shrink, expelling more water, thereby causing the cell to shrivel.

Explanation:

The main function of the contractile vacuole is to regulate the amount of water in the cell and to expel waste products. When a freshwater amoeba is placed in seawater which is hypertonic, the contractile vacuole will release more water in response to the concentration gradient thereby making the cell to shrivel up.

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Lisa and Monica

Explanation:

<em>The correct answer would be Lisa and Monica.</em>

<u>For X-linked recessive disorders, a female can be unaffected, a carrier, or affected. However, a male can either be affected or unaffected and never a carrier. This is because females have two X chromosomes while males have only one.</u>

In addition, completely filled-in shapes in a pedigree mean that such individuals are affected for the trait in question while half-filled shapes mean the individuals are carriers for the trait.

Hence, individuals in the pedigree that are labeled carriers for red-green color blindness are Lisa and Monica (they both have half-filled shapes).
