Answer:
C. placing cells in an environment with a lower solute concentration than that in the cells.
Explanation:
In pathological or diagnostic laboratories, to perform the differential leukocytes count (DLC) or white blood cells (WBC) count which are granulocytes, lymphocytes and monocytes we should first lyse the erythorcytes or red blood cells (RBC) with RBC lysis buffer. When RBC's lysis occur then only WBC's remain in the solution. Then, we add the hypotonic solution or lower solute concentration solution. By adding the hypotonic solution the cells will swell and increase in size.
So, the researchers used the hypotonic solution or lower solute concentration solution to increase the size of cells to differentiate between them.
Note:
In hypotonic solution the cells are increased in size or swell.
In hypertonic solution the cells are decrease in size or shrink.
In Isotonic solution the cells size remain same as normal.
Sponges are the simplest bilateral animal and do lack a body cavity. A sponge has two layers of tissue.
The statement 'cell death normally does not occur unless there has been an injury to the cell' is false.
A cell can be described as the basic building block of life. All living organisms are known to be made of cells.
There are various reasons that a cell might die. A cell might die when its function is over. A cell might also die for the formation of other structures in the body. For example, the formation of an outer layer of the skin requires dead cells. A cell might kill itself if it has no use or finds that it has been invaded by an antigen.
Hence, the statement that cell death occurs only due to injury is false as cell death can occur due to various other reasons.
