For the answer to the question above, <span>Griffith heated a culture of a disease- causing the strain of the bacteria, which killed the bacteria but didn't destroy the DNA. When he mixed the heat-killed, disease-causing bacteria with live harmless bacteria, the DNA from the disease-causing bacteria was infused to the live bacteria. This kind of bacteria and their offspring caused pneumonia to the mice.</span>
Answer:
The answer is 20 degrees then the temperature will start going to other organs
Answer:
The correct answer is: <em>B. blood cells would be in a hypotonic solution, so water would rush into the cell causing it to expand and eventually burst</em>.
Explanation:
Cells have a certain solute concentration that produces an osmotic pressure of aproximately 300 mOsm. For that reason, IVs solutions must have a solute concentration which equals the cell osmotic pressure. That is usually acomplished by using an aqueous solution of NaCl 0.9% w/v or 5% w/v Glucose.
If an IV of pure water is administrated to a person, the blood cells will be in a hypotonic solution. That is, with a concentration lesser than the concentration inside the cells. Due to the difference in concentration, a net flow of water will be produced from the exterior to the cell interior. As the volume of the cell is increased, the cell membrane is damaged and eventually the cell will collapse.
