Answer:

A. Increasing surface area to improve nutrient absorption between the digestive and the circulatory systems.

Explanation:

Our intestines, on the inside, are lined with the intestinal mucosa. This mucosa is not straightened, as it might seem macroscopically; it rather has this wavy appearance forming folds. Also, epithelial cells in this mucosal layer have lots of small finger-like extensions called the villi.

Folds and villi increase the contact surface between the nutrients in the lumen and mucosa, thus increasing the rate of absorption of these nutrients between the intestines and the blood vessels below the epithelium.

If a plant cell is placed in a solution and the cell shrivels up, what type of solution was it placed in? How do you know?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: The solution was hypertonic

Explanation: The reason for this is the fact that the cell shriveled up. The shriveling was caused by water moving out of the cell. This movement is likely caused by a disbalance in solutes between the cell and the surrounding, with the surrounding containing a higher concentration of solutes. Diffusion tries to balance this by moving water out of the cell, thus increasing the concentration inside and reducing the concentration outside.
