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.

The great scientist Isaac Newton said that his long studies of the moon gave him headaches.What do you think is complicated stud
Oduvanchick [21]
Well, using Math to see how far the Moon is from the Earth could be hard. Also, he saw that the Moon is moving in a "circle" instead of flying off, so the Earth did have a pull on the Moon so that it didn't fly away. Newton had to use Math in order to be able to identify what it's now called gravity. There's a lot that the Moon has to offer, there were no computers back then, so there's was no calculator and everything had to be done by hand.
