Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The flower cells are hypertonic to fresh water but hypotonic to the salt solution.

Flower cell is hypertonic to fresh water, this means that the amount of solute in the solution outside the flower cell is higher than the solute content inside the flower cell.

While when a flower cell is hypotonic, it means that the amount of solute in the solution outside the flower cell is lower than the solute content inside the flower cell.

This is the reason why a flower plant placed in vase of water stood and become erect, while the same flower placed in a salt solution wilted.

Hence, option A is correct

We knew hospitals as places where people get treatment. We hardly imagine hospitals doing outreach to the community outreach nowadays. Community outreach may improve patient outcomes, which is crucial for the hospital to have access to payer’s reimbursements. One good example is giving outreach to churches, since these institutions often have older and often sicker, individuals. The hospital may directly engage with the church and give health education and smooth transition from hospital to home. The hospital may also embrace social media, or use Twitter to data-mine flu outbreaks in the community.
