Explanation:
Water is the most abundant substance in the body. An average healthy adult is 45 to 75 percent water. Percent of water declines with age. Males have more body water than females.
The major function of the contractile vacuole of amoeba is osmoregulation. The solute concentration found in the cell of amoeba's cytoplasm is more than the solute concentration in the freshwater that surround the external part of the organism, thus, water enter the cell through osmosis. The contractile vacuole collect the excess water and expel it through an opening in the cell membrane. By doing this, the contractile vacuole maintains the water balance in amoeba. This how the contractile vacuole normally operate.
In a situation where amoeba is placed in seawater, then water from the cell cytoplasm will rush out of amoeba cell, because of the higher salt content of the surrounding medium. The contractile vacuole will respond to the situation by increasing its contraction and pumping water out the cell in an accelerated manner, this will lead to the shrinking of the cell.
Answer should be A if multiple choice
Explanation:
I hope the diagram will help remember A always pairs with T and C always pairs with G. u can also remember as Apple Tree and Car Garage. :)
