In a hypotonic solution the water outside the cell is at a higher concentration than inside the cell. So gases, water etc. always want to move to lower concentration. So the water from outside the cell diffuses into the cell and makes it swell.

Hitman42 [59]

Scientists are studying compounds in a newly discovered rainforest plant. The plant produces an unusual substance that local people say acts as an anesthetic. If another scientist tests the substance using iodine, the scientist testing for carbohydrates.

The existence of carbohydrates in leaves can be sampled by the Iodine test. When chlorophyll is removed from the leaf by boiling it in alcohol and then placing two drops of iodine solution it turns blue in color which indicates the presence of starch.

The iodine test is a test that is utilized to test for the existence of starch. The mixture of starch and iodine produces an extremely blue-black color.

Que sucedería con la especie humana si debido a una futura mutación genética sus células no pudieran realizar los procesos de mi
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

la vida no podría continuar sin los procesos de división celular  

Explanation:

La mitosis es el proceso de división celular mediante el cual se producen dos células idénticas a partir de una sola célula. Durante la mitosis la célula crece y duplica la cantidad de ADN, con lo cual exactamente el mismo contenido de información genética es trasmitido a las sucesivas células que el proceso de mitosis va a dar origen. Por otra parte, la meiosis es un proceso celular en el cual se producen dos divisiones nucleares y citoplasmáticas (meiosis I y meiosis II) las cuales son precedidas por una fase de replicación del ADN. En la especie humana, la mitosis da lugar a células diploides (2n) con dos set completos de cromosomas homólogos, mientras que la meiosis da lugar a cuatro células haploides (n) llamadas gametos (el gameto masculino es el espermatozoide y el gameto femenino es el óvulo) las cuales contienen la mitad del número cromosómico al de la célula de origen. En organismos eucariotas pluricelulares tales como la especie humana, la función de la mitosis es producir más células somáticas (soma: cuerpo) con idéntico material genético, mientras que la función de la meiosis es producir células aptas para el proceso de reproducción, es decir, células con la mitad del material genético que se fusionarán para generar una célula diploide o zigoto a partir del cual y mediante sucesivas mitosis se desarrollará un organismo adulto.
