The event order should be:
1. Ingesting food, the small bowel filled with food solutes and become hypertonic. It will attract water from the blood which is hypotonic
2. Food digested, some of it absorbed. The osmotic pressure inside bowel will be reduced.
3. All food is absorbed, the osmotic pressure reduced significantly makes it hypotonic. The blood attracts water as it is hypertonic. This will increase the blood volume
An organism has 28 pairs of chromosomes in its diploid somatic cells. How many chromosomes are in its gametes?
diploid = 2n, haploid = n
2n = 28 pairs = 28×2 = 56, n = 28
gametes are haploid = n = 28 total chromosomes
When there is a - in front of an expression in parentheses, change the sign of each term in the expression
