Explain how osmosis will affect animal cells when the cells are placed into and environment with a low water potential compared
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cytoplasm in animal cells is surrounded by a membrane, which delimits the cell and its surroundings. As opposite from the plant cells, animal cells do not have a cell wall.

<em>Osmosis</em><em> is the process in which a solvent diffuses across a semipermeable membrane</em> (like the cell membrane) <em>from the zone with the lower concentration of solutes to the zone with the higher concentration. </em>That means that water, in this case, will diffuse spontaneously across the cell membrane from the place with more water molecules (usually, the exterior of the cell) to the place which has less water molecules, or is more concentrated (in this case, the cytoplasm). This diffusion will continue until an equilibrium is reached.

If we place an animal cell, which does not have a cell wall, into an environment with a low water potential, <u>the water will flow from the exterior to the interior</u>. If the water potential is very low compared to the one of the cytoplasm, the cell can receive too much water and explode. This process is called cytolysis.

B=black and b=brown. A Bb guinea pig crosses with a Bb guinea pig, and four offspring are produced. All of the offspring are bla
Sladkaya [172]

If two Bb guinea pigs cross, there are four possible outcomes:

  • both pass the B: the son is BB
  • one of the pass the B and the other pass the b: the son is Bb
  • both pass the b: the son is bb

Since B (being black) is dominant, the son will be black in both BB and Bb cases. In order for a son to be brown, he must be a pure bb specimen.

So, if all of the offspring are black, it means that all four guinea pigs are either BB or Bb, which in turn means that at least one of the parents passed the B gene.

Which of the following describes the difference between nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Some of these can easily be eliminated by knowing that both nitrogen 14 and nitrogen 15 are isotopes ( same element, with the same amount of protons, but with different numbers of neutrons) of nitrogen. So if the only difference between nitrogen 14, 15 , and regular nitrogen is the amount of neutrons...how many protons and electrons should both nitrogen 14 and 15 have? After thinking, you should be able to eliminate A, B,and C.
