A hypertonic solution has:
Fewer water molecules outside the cell than are inside the cell. Thus, option "A" is correct.
<h3>What is hypertonic solution?</h3>
- The cell is in a hypertonic solution because it lost water through osmosis and shrunk.
- A hypertonic solution contains more solute molecules compared to solvent molecules while the hypotonic solution has more solvent molecules than solute molecules.
- When a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution it loses water through osmosis and shrinks.
- An animal cell placed in a hypotonic solution absorbs water through osmosis, increases in size and then bursts. Plant cell, on the other hand, does not burst when placed in a hypotonic solution as it contains a cellulose cell wall.
Thus, option "A" is correct.

<span>Lipids insulate against the cold.
Fat is our natural coat produced by the over eating process. Not really sure, but it comes to mind that the layer under the skin can be the main reason for it as it prevents and keep our inner parts warm. Also the high blood flow that it demands can help by over circulating it.</span>
When the fish is put into fresh water, suddenly the concentration around them is very low and the water potential is extremely high. Water will now move from the relatively high water potential in the water to the relatively low water potential in the cells, the cells start to burst and the fish dies.
Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction used by members of domains archaea and bacteria among other organisms. Like mitosis (in eukaryotic cells), it results in cell division of the original cell to produce two viable cells that can repeat the process. Hope I’ve helped ;)
The three chromosomal aberration:
1.) Inversion - breakage of chromosome in two places , the other piece of DNA is re- inserted into the chromosome.
2.) Translocation - the one piece breaks off and attaches to another chromosome.
3.) Deletion - the loss of segment of chromosome.
