Answer: shrink

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)

If you had to define ecological succession in your own words in a 140 character text how would you define it
liberstina [14]

the process by which the structure of a biological community evolves over time. Two different types of succession—primary and secondary—have been distinguished. Primary succession occurs in essentially lifeless areas—regions in which the soil is incapable of sustaining life as a result of such factors as lava flows, newly formed sand dunes, or rocks left from a retreating glacier. Secondary succession occurs in areas where a community that previously existed has been removed; it is typified by smaller-scale disturbances that do not eliminate all life and nutrients from the environment.

ki77a [65]
This is a very hot and dry area. The winter can be mild and usually about 50° F (10°C). It is so hot and dry at 40 °C that fires and droughts are very common.The chaparral biome has many different types of terrain. Some examples are flat plains, rocky hills and mountain slopes. It is sometimes used in movies for the "Wild West". <span>The animals are all mainly grassland and desert types adapted to hot, dry weather. A few examples: coyotes, jackrabbits, mule deer, alligator lizards, horned toads, praying mantis, honey bee and ladybugs.

I hope this helps.
