Answer:D
Explanation:Because I got it right
Answer:
When a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, it contracts as water is drawn out of the cell and into the surrounding solution. If the same blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the blood cell grows in size. Blood cells in isotonic solutions do not shrink or swell.
The reason that blood cells change in size when placed in a solution with different salt concentration is due to the osmosis process. Osmosis causes solutions with high concentrations of salt to draw water from areas with low concentrations of salt.
There are some exceptions to this phenomenon. Blood cells can draw water and explode when placed in hypertonic solution on some special occasions. Some diseases affect the structural integrity of blood cells. Also, when human blood cells are exposed to temperatures close to freezing, they can draw water and explode.
Osmosis is an important phenomenon for living systems. The amount of salt in a given solution exhibits a tendency to diffuse through the environment, eventually resulting in equilibrium. In addition to blood cells, the kidneys function through the use of osmotic principles. The kidneys filter an animal's blood to remove excess salt and balance the amount of water
Answer:
Option 4 - Calcium
Explanation:
The <em>divalent cation </em>called <em>calcium</em> is needed to provide additional support to the bone matrix.
Calcium is considered one of the most <em>important components</em> in bone development. It helps in the formation as well as maintenance of bone. During the modeling and remodeling process of bones, calcium facilitates the formation of <em>semi-hard new tissues</em> which leads to the formation of new bone which is very hard.
Due to this reason, calcium is needed to create extra bone matrix support.
The correct answer is - No.
The Cambrian explosion is a term used for the big and rapid diversification of the animal species, but it is not the period in which the animal life started. The animal life started in the period between 620 and 550 million years ago, in what is known as the Vendian Period. In the Vendian Period, the first complex animal organisms appeared, started to develop and evolve, though it is not a period where there was a high diversification of the species. The later Cambrian Period provided better living conditions, and that resulted in a so called ''explosion of life'', which resulted in much more new species developing and evolving.
