Which statement describes the movement of water when a cell swells up and bursts due to osmosis?

Social Studies

Answer is 'Water went into the cell because the concentration of water inside the cell was lower than the concentration outside the cell.'

<u>Osmosis</u> is the diffusion of water molecules, across a semipermeable membrane, from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration.

When a cell's cytoplasm has a lower concentration of water than the outer medium of the cell, then water will enter the cell through osmosis. It is mainly due to osmotic imbalance that excessive water molecules get into the cell, causing it to swell and eventually burst.

It is ideally an animal cell that bursts due to osmosis because they lack the cell wall which may prevent it from bursting.

What does it mean when the president declares a national emergency
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

A country's government or president can declare that it is in a state of emergency. This means that the government can suspend and/or change some of the functions of the executive, the legislature or the judiciary while the country is in this exceptional state, while alerting its citizens to adjust their behavior according to the new situation, in addition to command government agencies to implement emergency plans.  This way, a government can declare a state of emergency in response to natural or man-made disasters, periods of civil unrest, declarations of war or situations involving internal or international armed conflicts.
