The image shows a red blood cell in different solution. The first image shows an RBC in a hypotonic solutions. The RBC swell and lyse because of the osmotic movement or referred to as hemolysis. The second image shows a normal RBC in an isotonic solution. There is no net change of water to the RBC. The third image shows a shriveled RBC in a hypertonic solution. The water leak out of the RBC briskly than it enters the cell. It is also called as crenated cell.
Answer - Option C - hypotonic solution
Answer:
B. Is what the scientists manipulate in the experiment.
Explanation:
The Independent variable is not dependent, or doesn't rely, on another variable in the experiment. So, it would make the most sense that they would manipulate the Independent so that they can watch and see how the dependent variable reacts to the manipulation, or the change, in the independent variable.
Answer:
A glance of earth taken from space will depict it blue. This blue colour is actually water, the major part of the earth is covered with water. We need water for almost everything, for example- drinking, bathing, cooking etc and therefore we should know about the properties of water. 65 % human body is composed of water. Water is essential for the survival of life on earth. Water is distributed unevenly on the earth’s surface. It forms a major solvent and dissolves almost every polar solute. So let us have a look at its properties.
Physical properties of water : Water is a colourless and tasteless liquid. The molecules of water have extensive hydrogen bonds resulting in unusual properties in the condensed form. This also leads to high melting and boiling points. As compared to other liquids, water has a higher specific heat, thermal conductivity, surface tension, dipole moment etc. These properties form the reason for its significance in the biosphere. Water is an excellent solvent and therefore it helps in the transportation of ions and molecules required for metabolism. It has a high latent heat of vaporization which helps in the regulation of body temperature
Chemical properties of water: Amphoteric nature:
Water can act as both acid and base, which means that it is amphoteric in nature.
Example:
Acidic Behaviour: H2O(l)+NH3(aq) ⇌ H3O+(aq)+NH+4(aq)
Basic Behavior: H2O(l)+H2S(aq) ⇌ H3O+(aq)+HS−(aq)
Redox reactions:
Electropositive elements reduce water to hydrogen molecule. Thus water is a great source of hydrogen. Let us see an example in this case:
2H2O(l)+2Na(s)→2NaOH(aq)+H2(g)
During the process of photosynthesis, water is oxidized to O2. As water can be oxidized and reduced, it is very useful in redox reactions.
Hydrolysis reaction
Water has a very strong hydrating tendency due to its dielectric constant. It dissolves many ionic compounds. Some covalent and ionic compounds can be hydrolyzed in water.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-E
Explanation:
The soft cheese like Camembert, blue cheese and feta cheese are prepared from the unpasteurised milk.
Since the milk is not pasteurized therefore there are higher chances that the prepared cheese will have the micro-organism which could be lethal to humans like Listeria. Listeria is a bacteria which gets killed during the pasteurization process.
The pregnant woman should avoid eating the soft cheese as the cheese could contain the harmful bacteria like listeria which once ingested can enter the placenta and can kill the unborn babies or preterm delivery.
Thus, option-E is the correct answer.
