Answer: The correct answer is A) Cells swell as water moves into them.

Due to drinking of water during exercise, the concentration of sodium ( solute)  in the blood becomes lower than the normal. The concentration of solvent ( water) will be high outside the cells.

When the body tries to restore homeostasis, the cells swell as the water moves from outside the cell to inside. This is because water always moves from an area of its high concentration to the area of its low concentration. As the solute concentration is low and solvent ( water) concentration is high outside the cell. Therefore, water moves in the cells making them swell.

Thus, the correct option is A) Cells swell as water moves into them.

Dance that provides honey bees information about both the direction and distance of food:
liq [111]

Answer: WAGGLE DANCE is the dance that provides honey bees information about both the direction and distance of food.

Explanation:

Honey bees are flying insects that helps in the pollination of plants as they collect nectar and pollen from plants for food. As the name implies, they are known for the production of honey.

The honey bee dance helps in social organization of the honey-bees which is established by the living of all individuals within the colony and they show the mutual cooperation among the members of the colony, and exhibit the overlapping genera­tions.

WAGGLE DANCE is the dance that provides honey bees information about both the direction and distance of food for the colony. It consists of two phases:

- the WAGGLE phase and

- return phase which occurs in a regular alteration pattern by foragers. It involves running through a small figure-eight pattern.

Solve the 3 following questions (btw this isn’t biology, my questions are Earth Science)
Tanzania [10]

"Many processes work together to keep Earth's water moving in a cycle. There are five processes at work in the hydrologic cycle: condensation, precipitation, infiltration, runoff, and evapotranspiration. These occur simultaneously and, except for precipitation, continuously."

"The water cycle is driven primarily by the energy from the sun. This solar energy drives the cycle by evaporating water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and even the soil. Other water moves from plants to the atmosphere through the process of transpiration."

"The water cycle describes how water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow in clouds, and falls again to the surface as precipitation. Also, the cycling of water in and out of the atmosphere is a significant aspect of the weather patterns on Earth."
