Answer: The correct answer is -

C. Solute.

Explanation:

Hypotonic solution is the one that contains lesser concentration of solute (such as salt concentration) and higher concentration of solvent such as water.

On the other hand, hypertonic solution is the one that has higher concentration of solute (such as salt concentration) as compared to solvent concentration.

Thus, option C) is the right answer.

The right answer is C. Solute.

* A hypotonic solution is a solution less concentrated in solute so more concentrated in water.

* A hypertonic solution is a solution more concentrated in solute and therefore less concentrated in water.

* Two isotonic solutions have the same solute concentration and, therefore, also the same water concentration.

What happens as pigments are mixed together?
andriy [413]
When pigments are mixed together, more colors are being absorbed which results to few colors that will be reflected.

Complete the sentences to describe natural selection
Vikentia [17]
  1. The environment needs to change in order to natural selection to occur.

Reason:

Because, Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It is a key mechanism of evolution, the change in the heritable traits characteristic of a population over generations.

2. Population has some genetic variations.

Reason:

Genetic variation is essential for natural selection because natural selection can only increase or decrease frequency of alleles that already exist in the population. Genetic variation is caused by:

mutation and random mating between organisms

3. Nature select organism with specific traits to survive and reproduce.

Reason:

According to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, organisms that possess heritable traits that enable them to better adapt to their environment compared with other members of their species will be more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass more of their genes on to the next generation.
