Question

FOR BIOLOGY I MADE A MISTAKE

Answer 1

Answer:

A-The cell was submerged in a hypertonic solution.

Explanation:

A hypertonic solution is a solution with higher concentration of solute or dissolved particle than that of its surrounding.

When normal cells and animal cells are submerged in a hypertonic solution, the cell loses water to its surrounding, thereby shrinking.

The statement which best explains what occurred to the Elodea cell when submerged in a solution, is:

"A-The cell was submerged in a hypertonic solution."

This explains why the cytoplasm of Elodea became shrunk as it pulls away from the cell wall, thereby clumping together at the center of the cell.
