If a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the cell would shrink.
Hypertonic solution means that the solution has a lower water potential than the other side (which is the cell's cytoplasm in this case), and by that, water molecules would have a tendency to flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential. This movement of water molecules is called osmosis. But note that a semi-permeable membrane (a membrane which can decide what substances can go in and out, the cell membrane is an example) has to be present in osmosis, or else the movement may be regarded as diffusion.
As the water molecules flowed away from the red blood cell cytoplasm, the cell loss so much water that the membrane has nothing much to hold and thus the cell shrinks.
The answer to this question would be: <span>C) cell type, prokaryotic versus eukaryotic. </span>
In six-kingdom classification, the cell type would be same for each kingdom. A kingdom should only have either prokaryotic or eukaryotic
A different method of reproduction needs an advanced organ and not all kingdom have it. Consumer/producer or unicellular/multicellular classification cant differentiate between the kingdom since one kingdom can have a member with those traits.
Answer:
some of the weak-acid component of the buffer will dissociate and turn into the conjugate base (which is the weak-base component of the buffer) thus replenishing most of the protons removed.
The correct is amino acids
Answer: mutualism
Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship, between two organisms, living in close association with each other. In this relationship both the organisms gains benefit. Both organisms are dependent on each other for competing their life cycle.
The given situation is an example of mutualism because both the species are benefited for the relationship. Birds receive food from strawberries in turn birds disperse the seeds of strawberry to promote growth of more strawberry plants. Both organisms are interdependent on each other.
