Suppose a human blood cell containing a 0.9 percent solute concentration were put into a container of 0 percent solute solution

(i.E., distilled water). Would the blood cell get bigger or smaller? Why? In your explanation, you must tell me which area has the hypotonic solution (inside the blood cell or outside the blood cell), which area has the hypertonic solution (inside the blood cell or outside the blood cell), and which direction the water would be moving (into the cell or out of the cell).

Answer and explanation:

If a human blood cell with a 0.9% solute concentration were to be put into a container of 0% solute solution, the cell would get BIGGER.

<u>The cell contains a </u><u>more concentrated solution</u><u> than the solution in the container</u>. The difference in concentration would produce an <em>osmotic gradient</em> that would cause water from the container to get inside the cell to even the concentrations - this is going to make the cell much bigger because the entering water would bloat the cell.

In this example, the solution in the container is hypotonic in relation to the cell, while the solution inside the cell is hypertonic in relation to the solution in the container. This is why the water will be moving from outside of the cell to the inside of the cell.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

a.  F1 genotype : IiBb  F1 phenotype : Hairless

    F2 genotype and phenotype :

   I_B_ (hairless), iiB_ (straight), iibb (bent)

b. IiBb X iiBb

Explanation:

a. Fly 1 : pure breeding straight haired : iiBB

Fly 2 : pure breeding hairless with bent genotype : IIbb

Fly 1 X Fly 2 : iiBB X IIbb = IiBb (F1)

All the offspring will be hairless since there is one dominant I allele which will inhibit hair production regardless of the type of allele of other gene.

Two F1 flies will be crossed to obtain F2 flies. IiBb X IiBb :

I_B_ : hairless        = 9  

I_bb : hairless        = 3

iiB_  : straight hair = 3

iibb  : bent hair      = 1

Hairless : straight : bent will be in 12 : 3 : 1 ratio.

b. The offspring of this cross :

hairless : I_ _ _

straight : iiB_

bent      : iibb

There is a bent offspring which has both the recessive alleles of both the genes. Hence it must have obtained the two alleles from the two parents. So their genotype is _i_b and _i_b.

Half of the offspring are hairless as given by the ratio. This is only possible if the cross is between Ii and ii fly:

    I   i

i  Ii    ii

i  Ii    ii

So the genotype is Ii_b and ii_b.

The remaining hairy flies are in 3:1 ratio of straight to bent. This is only possible if the cross is between Bb and Bb fly:

    B    b

B  BB Bb

b  Bb  bb

So the final genotype of the flies is IiBb and iiBb.
