Answer:

(2) water would move out of body cells and cause them to dehydrate

Explanation:

If the amount of salts in the intravenous fluid given to the patient was greater than the usual amount, the patient's cells would osmosis, due to salt imbalance in the subject's body. As a result of osmosis, water would come out of cells in an attempt to balance the amount of water in the body and leave the body dehydrated.

Osmosis is the passage of water from a less concentrated medium to a more concentrated medium through the plasma membrane seeking to equalize the salt concentrations between the internal and external medium of a cell. Whenever there is a difference in concentration between the external and internal environment of the cell, water will move from the least concentrated to the most naturally concentrated.

babunello [35]
I'm not sure how exactly you wanted this question to be answered. You're either talking about the symmetry where animals would have two legs or two arms for example and thus producing a pair of each muscle on both sides of the body, or you're refering to the development of agonistic and antaonistic muscles where each of them served a different purpose; either extending or contracting.

A parent that is heterozygous for both traits (AaBb) can create how many different allele possibilities.
MAVERICK [17]
Distribute the A to the B and the b, then the a to the B and the b. You should get four different possible combinations: AB Ab aB ab. These would then be used to set up one side of a punnett square, and the other parent's genotype would be set up the same, then put on the other side of the punnett square.
