Answer: The concentration of the cytoplasm of red blood cells will be 0.5m.

Explanation: Red blood cells that are bathed in blood neither shrink nor swell and burst because the concentration of the surrounding blood is equal to the concentration inside the cytoplasm of the red blood cells. This means that the two solutions are isotonic. Since the two solutions are isotonic, there will not be movement of water molecules across the red blood cell membrane. Osmosis do not occur between two solutions of equal concentration, for osmosis to occur water molecules must move from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration through a selectively permeable membrane.

Describe how The Carbon Cycle works.
shutvik [7]

Carbon cycle refers to an array of procedures by which the compounds of carbon are interconverted in the environment, comprising the inclusion of carbon dioxide into living tissue by the process of photosynthesis and then getting back into the atmosphere via respiration, the burning of fossil fuels, and the decomposition of dead organisms.  

The following are the steps that illustrate how the carbon cycle functions:  

1. Carbon enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide from combustion and respiration.  

2. The absorption of carbon dioxide takes place by the producers to manufacture glucose in photosynthesis.  

3. The animals feed on the plant passing the carbon components through the food chain. The majority of the consumed carbon is exhaled in the form of CO2, which was produced at the time of aerobic respiration. The plants and animals die eventually.  

4. The dead plants and animals get dissociated by the dead organisms and return the carbon present in their bodies back to the atmosphere as CO2 by the process of respiration. In certain occasions, the dead plant and animals get converted into fossil fuel, which is available in future for combustion.

dangina [55]

There should be options for this question. I manged to find them elsewhere. They are:

A) the period during which tremendous growth occurs and the organs continue to develop and become  functional

B) the period during which the umbilical cord develops

C) the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop

D) the period during which the zygote moves down to the uterus and begins to implant in the lining

The correct answer is C. The embryonic period is the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop. The embryonic period lasts from implantation of the egg in the uterus until about 8 weeks from the time of conception. It is the second major stage of prenatal development, prior to embryonic is the germinal stage and lastly is the fetal stage.
