Answer:
a) A cell will shrink when the concentration of electrolytes is greater inside the cell than outside the cell. FALSE
Explanation:
The regulation of cell fluid is caused by molecules called as Electrolytes. The higher concentration of these electrolytes outside the cells or lower concentration inside the cells will suck water outside the cells. Water is pumped to the area where the concentration of electrolytes is high. It is also clears from the Option d) that water follows the movement of electrolytes so it means that water will move to out if the concentration of electrolytes outside the cells is high which will cause shrinkage of cell organelles.
The answer to this question would be: by producing buffer
The pH of optimal growth of bacteria might be different. Some bacteria can grow in an acid condition called acidophile, other live in base condition called alkaliphiles and the rest live in neutral pH condition called neutrophiles. The bacteria can maintain their internal pH by producing acid, base or buffer. If the surrounding pH is too acid, the bacteria can reduce the H+ concentration by producing base. If the condition is too alkali/base, the bacteria can produce acid by doing fermentation.
