The correct answer is C. She added water that was hypotonic to the culture of organisms, and they ruptured.
Explanation:
In biology, a hypotonic solution is a substance with less concentration than the inner concentration in cells, this is the opposite of a hypertonic solution that has a higher concentration. Additionally, if cells are in hypotonic solution water or liquid will begin to get into them and this would make cells burst and finally explode and die due to the pressure in them.
This occurred in the case presented as it is likely the organisms collected from the ocean had a high concentration and therefore hen they were exposed to clean water in which concentration was lower, water entered into the cells and made them explode, which explains the only remains of them were bit and pieces.
Answer:
Amoeba cells catch food and move about extending fingerlike projections of a colorless material called protoplasm and are found in decaying bottom vegetation of fresh water streams and ponds
You are correct, A is the right answer.
Because there is more water outside of this cell, there will be a net movement of water into the cell - osmosis
It could occur after a forest fire or flood.
Active transport refers to a substance moving from areas in which it has low concentration to an area with high concentration, one example i guess is endocytosis, "<span>the taking in of matter by a living cell by invagination of its membrane to form a vacuole"</span>
