A red blood cell placed in a medium that is hypertonic relative to its cytoplasm will shrink
Explanation:
Since the hypertonic medium has a higher concentration than the red blood cell, water will move out of the cell membrane of the red blood cell into the hypertonic medium.
Thus, after a while the continuous loss of water will cause the red blood cell to shrink (reduce in size)
Plants need air, light, warmth, water and nutrients to be healthy. If a plant doesn't have one of these requirements it could affect its growth or even die.
Lysosome are among the organelles in a eukaryotic cell. Lysosomes are formed by the golgi bodies or the golgi apparatus.
<em><u>The role of lysosomes is to digest and destroy old and worn out organelles together with cellular wastes. In other words Lysosomes break down food molecules, waste products, and old worn out cells or organelles.</u></em>
They contain powerful lytic enzymes and and acids which help in the digestion and recycling of cellular materials.
