Paramecia are unicellular protists that have contractile vacuoles to remove excess intracellular water. In an experimental inves

tigation, paramecia were places were placed in salt solutions of increasing osmolarity. The rate at which the contractile vacuole contracted in pump out excess water was determined and plotted against osmolarity of the solution, as shown is the graph. (Graph has negative slope; y-axis - rate of concentration, x-axis - osmolarity of solution.) Which of the following is the correct explanation for the data?
a. At higher osmolarity, lower rates of contraction are required because more salt diffuses into paramecia
b. The contraction rate increases as the osmolarity decreases becase of the reduced amount of ATP produced by cellular respiration
c. The contractile vacuole is less efficient in solutions of high osmolarity because of the reduced amount of ATP produced from cellular respiration
d. In an isosmotic salt solution, thre is no diffusion of water into or out of the paramecia, so the contraction rate is zero

A triangle is such that the largest angle is three times the smallest angle. Find the measure of each angle
sammy [17]
Let x represent the smallest angle. Then the largest is 3x, and the remaining angle is 180-4x. The problem statement tells us
.. 3x > 180 -4x > x
Adding 4x gives us
.. 7x > 180 > 5x
or
.. 36 > x > 180/7 = 25 5/7

The angles, smallest to largest, are
.. x, 4(45 -x), 3x
where 25 5/7 < x < 36

The angles could be, for example, any of ...
.. 26°, 76°, 78°
.. 30°, 60°, 90°
.. 32°, 52°, 96°
.. 35°, 40°, 105°
and an infinite number of other possibilities.

Could somebody help me with this question please?
ELEN [110]
The answer would be 20. Because the whole angle would have to be 90 so you already have 30 so that leaves you with 60 which you divide by 3 and gives you 20

The difference of a number and 17 is more than 33
madreJ [45]

Answer:

In algebraic terms this means x-17>33

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve it x−17>33

1 Add 17 to both sides.

x>33+17

2 Simplify 33+17 to 50

x>50
