Answer: Hypertonic solution
Explanation: In hypertonic solutions solute concentration is higher that those inside the cells. That means there is a different pressure in and out of the cell and in order to reach the equilibrium the cell has to release water to the medium and ever the concentration. As a result of this stressful conditions cells shrink which make pickles smaller.
Answer:
The statement that best explains the mechanisms of inheritance of gene "The allele for blue is an X-linked dominant allele because there are no blue male offspring in cross 2."
Explanation:
The mechanism for inheritance of gene is the condition, in which the mutation when happens in one allele and cause the effect in the relevant phenotype. Similar inheritance will also be seen when the mutated allele will produce new type of the protein which will have deletorious effect on the normal function of the cell. In case of the single gene, autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, X- linked recessive and mitochondrial are modes of inheritance.
Gametophytes produce cells that undergo mitosis to produce gametes that fuse to form a zygote.
Energy available to krill is 1500 calories
<u>Explanation:</u>
Energy produced by phytoplankton = 15,000 calories
Energy available to krill = ?
Along the food chain, only 10% of energy is transferred to the organism of higher trophic level.
Thus,
energy available to krill = 
= 1500 calories
Energy available to small fish = 
= 150 calories
Energy available to medium fish = 
= 15 calories
Energy available to large fish = 
= 1.5 calories
