<span>This can lead to heart disease. High levels of LDL cholesterol can lead to a buildup in the arteries and veins, leading to atherosclerosis. The blood vessels will thicken and make it difficult for blood to pass through because of the presence of white blood cells and plaque along the cell walls.</span>
Any solution having lower osmotic pressure as compared to another solution is called as a hypotonic solution and the reason that a solution is hypotonic is that it has more water and lesser dissolved solute in it.
If a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the amount of water content in the cell would be lesser as compared to that of the solution and hence, the water will enter the cell due to which the cell will swell and may even burst.
The water molecules can enter the cell through the semipermeable membrane and in case of plant cells, the presence of cell wall may prevent it bursting, however, the animal cells lack the cell wall and hence if kept in hypotonic solution for long these cells may burst.
In geology, Deflation can be defined as the process by which loose, light weight and small particles formed by the weathering of rocks, erosion of top-soil of the earth crust or the dust and sand particles are carried from one place to another by the action of wind.
When these particles hit or strike an obstruction like a mountain or hill they fall down on the ground.
Gradually with time, numerous such particles fall down and accumulate on the ground after striking an obstruction and eventually result in the formation of a sand dune.
