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.

Muscles can only contract and relax. How is it possible for you to move in so many different ways? How do muscles allow for loco
MrRa [10]

Explanation:

Muscles act on joints antagonistically. Some muscles will contract while other contract pulling on bones around joint hence enabling movement. An example is the elbow joint is moved by antagonistic action of biceps and triceps. When your biceps contract and triceps relax you are able to bend your arm at your elbow. When your triceps contract and biceps relax, your arms straighten.

what is the subdivision of the peripheral nervous system that connects to sensory receptors and to skeletal muscles called
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The somatic nervous system

Explanation:

The peripheral nervous system is categorized into two types: the autonomic and somatic nervous system.

The somatic nervous system controls the voluntary actions of the boys so is also known as the voluntary nervous system and the voluntary system involves the skeletal muscles therefore is also known as the skeletal nervous system.

The skeletal nervous system contains two types of neurons called the afferent neurons which carries the sensory input from the muscle to the CNS ans the efferent neurons which brings the impulse from the CNS to the muscles.

Thus, the somatic nervous system is the correct answer.
