If the concentration of salt in the fluid surrounding cells decreases and the concentration of other solutes remains constant?

Biology
1 answer:
svetoff [14.1K]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The cell will swell.

Explanation:

The cells react distinctly when placed in different solutions like hypertonic, isotonic and hypotonic solutions. In the mentioned question, that is, in the fluid surrounding the cells, the concentration of salt reduces, which makes the solution hypotonic. Hypotonic solution exhibit high water potential and low solute concentration.  

This makes the water move from the hypotonic solution to the inside of the cell as the osmotic movement occurs from high solvent concentration to low solvent concentration, thus, swelling of the cell takes place.

When do multicellular organisms appear
Harlamova29_29 [7]
Multicellular organisms arise in various ways, for example by cell division or by aggregation of many single cells. Colonial organisms are the result of many identical individuals joining together to form a colony. However, it can often be hard to separate colonial protists from true multicellular organisms, because the two concepts are not distinct; colonial protists have been dubbed "pluricellular" rather than "multicellular".

_______________ are considered effective in the short-term treatment of anxiety, regardless of the cause.
Viktor [21]

Answer:

<u>Benzodiazepines</u> are considered effective in the short-term treatment of anxiety, regardless of the cause.

Explanation:

Benzodiazepines are the group of CNS drugs which are used extensively in the attacks of anxiety alongwith insomnia and seizures because they have extremely fast acting anti-anxietic effects.

Benzodiazepines cause dose dependant CNS depression that extends from sedation to anesthesia to respiratory depression and death.

These drugs act on the GABA receptors and potentiate the effect of GABA thus resulting in the increase in the frequency of CL- channel opening thus mediate antianxiety and impairment of cognitive functions.

Benzodiazepines include following drugs :

1) Alprazolam

2) Diazepam

3) Lorazepam

4) Oxazepam
