<h2>Answer:</h2>

The living cell concentration is hypertonic than outer solution hence the concentration of solutes will be higher than the solvent.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • In the question description it is mentioned that cell is present in the hypotonic solution than cell environment will be hypertonic.
  • In the cell the solute will present in the concentrated form.
  • Hence the water will move from the outer environment into sell through the osmosis.
  • Osmosis is the movement of water from higher concentration to low concentration through semi permeable membrane.
  • Hence the cell will swell due to water collection in cell.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

D. magnetism, electrical conductivity, high melting point

Explanation:

Magnetism is the property of metal due to which they are attracted by magnets. Metals have high electrical conductivity which means they are good conductors of electricity. They also have high melting points i. e. they require high amount of heat to change its solid state into liquid state. In melting, bonds are broken down due to the applicable of heat energy.

What happens if the pressure in an angler fish habitat decreases
patriot [66]
If you are referring to selection pressure, when the selection pressure decreases, there will be weaker forces of natural selection. The angler fishes without the favourable traits would not be that strongly selected against and vice versa. In some cases such as predation selection pressure, the population of angler fishes in the habitat may increase

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The correct order is

Prophase l , Metaphase l, Anaphase I, Telophase l, Prophase ll, Metaphase II, Telophase ll / Cytokinesis ll

Explanation:

In Meiosis there are total two phases - Meiosis I and Meiosis II and each phase consists of total six sub phases which are as follows -

Meiosis I

1. Prophase I

2. Prometaphase I

3. Metaphase I

4. Anaphase I

5. Telophase I

6. Cytokinesis I

Meiosis II

1. Prophase II

2. Prometaphase II

3. Metaphase II

4. Anaphase II

5. Telophase II

6. Cytokinesis II

Hence the correct order is

Prophase l , Metaphase l, Anaphase I, Telophase l, Prophase ll, Metaphase II, Telophase ll / Cytokinesis ll
