<span>A solution is hypertonic to a cell if it has a higher solute (dissolved substance) concentration than the cell does. As a result, it also has a lower concentration of water than the cell does. Cell membranes and plant cell walls are semipermeable barriers, which means that certain molecules can diffuse through them, while other molecules can not.</span>

The animal cell would shrink, because there is more solute outside of the cell. That would cause the water within the cell to go outside of the cell.

Which process described shows the hydrosphere interacting with the lithosphere?
Arte-miy333 [17]

The process described which shows the hydrosphere interacting with the lithosphere is river water eroding a rocky bank and carrying silt to the sea which is therefore denoted as option B.

<h3>What is Hydrosphere?</h3>

This is referred to as the combined mass or quantity of water found on the plant such as earth and it comprises of different water bodies such as rivers, seas etc.

Lithosphere on the other hand is referred to as the solid, outer part of Earth which consists of the upper portion of the mantle and the crust in the form of rocks etc.

Water is very important in the ecosystem and is the reason why it is recycled so as to enable its presence which is usually in the form of precipitation. River water which is part of the hydrosphere erodes a rocky bank which forms part of the lithosphere.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

A.  Nuclear reactors increase thermal pollution

Explanation:

From the analogy provided in this context, we can vividly see that the author is suggesting that the use of nuclear energy causes thermal pollution.

  • Nuclear energy is an alternate energy source as identified in the text.
  • Since a huge amount of heat energy is generated and they are not all used up, they are released into the ecosystem.
  • The earth is usually depicted as heat reservoir.
  • Increased release of heat to the environment will cause thermal pollution.
  • This increases the ambient temperature of water and degrades it.
