Answer: This is a hypertonic solution. The water will move from inside the cell to outside the cell.

Explanation: There are three types of solutions based on the solute concentrations:

1. Hypotonic Solutions: In these solution, the concentration of solute is more inside the cell than outside the cell. The water inside the cell is less and hence the water will move from outside to inside and will result in the swelling of the cell.

2. Isotonic Solutions: In these solution, the concentration of solute inside the cell is same as outside the cell. The water will not move anywhere.

3. Hypertonic Solutions: In these solution, the concentration of solute is more outside the cell than inside the cell. The water outside the cell is less and hence the water will move from inside to outside the cell and will result in the shrinkage of the cell.

As per the question, the cell is present where concentration of glucose is 30% outside the cell and the concentration of glucose is 20% inside the cell. As, the concentration of solute is more outside the cell.

Hence, the cell is present in hypertonic solution and water will move from inside the cell to outside the cell.

The cell is in a hypertonic solution. Because there are more solutes outside the cell, the water will flow outside the cell in order to restore equilibrium.

In garden peas the allele for tall plants () is dominant over the allele for dwarf plants() A true breeding tall plant is bred w
marta [7]

Answer: This is called Monohybrid Experiment

Explanation: Monohybrid Cross

P Generation TT     *   tt

  Tall plants     Dwarf plants

F1 Generation  

T T

t Tt Tt

t Tt Tt

In F1 generation;

There are 100% Tt Genotype and 100% Tall plant Phenotype

F2 Generation

F1   *   F1

( Tt   *   Tt )

T t

T TT Tt

t Tt tt

In F2 Generation;

Genotype

There are 25% TT (homozygous dominant, tall plants).

50% Tt (heterozygous tall plants), and

25% tt (homozygous recessive dwarf plants).

This is how dwarf characteristics reappear in the second generation.

The Phenotype of F2 generation is 3:1  (Tall : Dwarf)

I have attached a document to this answer to facilitate effective understanding if there is anormalities in arrangement the Punnet Square.

the eastern kingbird hunts by catching flying insects in mid-air, an approach which requires impressive and energetic acrobatic
tangare [24]

It is safe to assume that the eastern kingbird will have a <u>type 2 </u><u>functional response </u><u>to an increase in </u><u>prey abundance</u><u>.</u>

The functional response, in ecology, is a data-based description of the behavior of certain animals' consumption rates in response to a change in prey density. This can be of three kinds:

  • Type 1: An increase in consumption
  • Type 2: A decrease in consumption
  • Type 3:  Decreased consumption, followed by a quick increase.

The Eastern kingbird is likely to follow a <u>type 1 </u><u>functional response</u> to the presence of more prey. The reason for this, aside from it being the most common response, is that the eastern kingbird consumes insects, which do not provide a great amount of energy, in a way that consumes much energy. Therefore it is logical to assume that the kingbird will consume more prey to better sustain its rigorous feeding habits.
