1. When a sugary gummy bear is placed in water, there are more dissolved solutes _______________ (inside/outside) the gummy bear

.
2. Your gummy bear increased in size after being soaked in tap water. Why did it expand?
(Hint: Remember that this is osmosis, and that water LOVES solutes.)

(Note: Giving 50 points because I'm confused and appreciate the help so much! Also, you don't need to see the assignment to know what the answer is. I just don't understand much about solutes.)

Answer:

When a sugary gummy bear is placed in water, there are more dissolved solutes inside the gummy bear.

Explanation:

The sugary gummy bear has more solutes as compared to the water in which it is being soaked. When a sugary gummy bear is placed in water, water enters the gummy bear through osmosis as water tends to move to the place where there are more solutes. The sugar gummy bear has more solutes. So, the gummy bear  expands and increases in size due to the entrance of water into it.

Answer:

Inside

Explanation:

The other answer helped explain it to me. When you put the sugary gummy bear in water, the water all rushes in and expands the gummy bear. If enough water gets in it, it could actually explode. That's why when you take the gummy bear out of the water, be very careful not to pop it.

Investiga como se reproducen las células madres​
Damm [24]

Answer:

Las células madre son células que se reproducen constantemente y tienen la capacidad de transformarse en cualquier otro tipo de célula del cuerpo de un organismo. Una célula a partir de la cual pueden crecer todos los tejidos del cuerpo, o una gran parte de ellos, es obviamente una célula extremadamente útil.  

Si las células madre se guían en la formación de tejidos sanos y funcionales, entonces, potencialmente, la terapia celular podría aplicarse para muchas enfermedades. De hecho, si las células provienen del propio paciente, en teoría no habrá riesgo de su rechazo (como lamentablemente ocurre con los trasplantes).

Las células madre tienen la capacidad de reproducirse por sí mismas a través del proceso de mitosis celular, para crear copias idénticas (clones) de sí mismas..

I believe he is looking for an allele
An allele is a variant form of a gene. Some genes have a variety of different forms, which are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosomes. Humans are called diploid organisms because they have two alleles at each genetic locus, with one allele inherited from each parent.
