Answer by Mimiwhatsup: C. Convergent boundary
Why is this right: Convergent boundaries but also known as 'destructive' is a(n) region of active deformation( an act of deforming, or at the state of being deformed) which is where two or more tectonic plates or fragments of the lithosphere are near end of their life cycle.
<span>Pleural sac is a two
layered membrane formed when a serous membrane known as pleura folds back onto
itself. Thus, the pleura invest the lungs and line the walls of the thoracic
cavity. However, the potential volume of the thoracic cavity increases during

Most bacteria live in a solution that is hypotonic relative to the cytoplasm of the bacteria. This means that the bacterial cell is constantly taking in water. The cell wall of a bacterium is a peptidoglycan polymer that is tightly cross-linked. This would therefore function to:_________-.
A. regulate the flow of most molecules into and out of the bacterial cell.
B. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from swelling.
C. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from shrinking.
D. confirm a close relationship to plant cells that have a similar structure and live in hypotonic solutions.
E. make all bacteria fairly uniform in metabolic chemistry.
Answer:
B. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from swelling.
Explanation:
When organisms are present in hypotonic surroundings, their cells that are in contact with the surroundings tend to gain water. Bacteria present in hypotonic solution would gain water as their cells are hypertonic than the surroundings. The entry of water would increase the volume of cytoplasm and could lead to the bursting of the cell. However, the presence of a cell wall made up of cross-linked peptidoglycan prevents the swelling of the bacterial cell and allow them to survive in hypotonic surroundings.
If you use chemicals to kill insects, you could risk getting the chemicals in unwanted areas. This could kill plants, animals, and other living things. You could also contaminate water if the chemicals get rinsed/drained into a water source.
