The Philippine Sea plate is tectonically unique where most of the boundaries are convergent. The Pacific plate is subducting underneath the Philippine Sea plate to the east while the northwestern section of the Philippine Sea plate is subducting underneath the Eurasian plate.

Philippine Plate is a tectonic plate containing marine lithosphere that stretches beneath the Philippine Sea, to the eastward of the Philippines. Most parts of the Philippines, covering northern Luzon, are the division of the Philippine Mobile Belt, which is tectonically separated from the Philippine Sea Plate.

TEA [102]

Answer: shrink

A red blood cell placed in a medium that is hypertonic relative to its cytoplasm will shrink

Explanation:

Since the hypertonic medium has a higher concentration than the red blood cell, water will move out of the cell membrane of the red blood cell into the hypertonic medium.

Thus, after a while the continuous loss of water will cause the red blood cell to shrink (reduce in size)
