<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.

Briefly describe what you think the world would be like if the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere were reduced to leve
eduard
If there were less greenhouse gases, much of the infrared radiation that is converted to heat today would not be trapped in the earth's atmosphere. The earth's temperature would cool, and a new Ice Age would occur. Many plants and animals could not survive in this new condition, oceans would freeze, and weather patterns would change.

Hope that helped
