Answer:

The correct answer is option B) high specific heat.

Explanation:

Water is present all over the globe and covered the whole earth. The specific heat of the water is the highest of any other liquid. Specific heat is the amount of heat, must be absorbed or removed by the one gram of a substance to 1 degree Celsius change in temperature.

The specific heat of the water plays an important role as it can absorb a lot of heat without a significant increase in the temperature.

Thus, the correct answer is option - B) high specific heat.

1. An animal cell has a 2% salt concentration. It is placed into a solution with a 0.05% salt concentration. What would happen t
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: water will move out of the animal cell causing it to swell and burst  (Option C)


Explanation:


When a cell is immersed into a salty solution, the osmotic pressure generated by concentration differences of salt, will make the salt come in due to cell self-protection mechanism of the cell and water will come out, eventually the cell can burst .But since the animal cells has a higher concentration of salt and the solution has a lower concentration osmosis will take place and salt will move from higher salt concentration to lower.

What blood cholesterol carrier is of greatest concern in atherosclerosis? hdl vldl ldl?
blondinia [14]
The answer is LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein)

Arteriosclerosis is the build up of cholesrol on the inner walls of the arteries. In the long run, arteriosclerosis reduces the diameter of the blood vessels, causing high blood pressure. 
The endothelial cells of arteries have receptors that facilitate binding and transportation of the LDL hence facilitation of their accumulation in the blood vessels.
