Answer:

C shrink

Explanation:

a hypertonic solution has more solutes than the intracellular environment, so water will leave the cell to try to achieve equilibrium. If enough water is lost, the cell will take on a wrinkled or shriveled appearance. In red blood cells this is called crenation and the surface of the cells take on a scalloped appearance. A high amount of water loss can be damaging or even fatal for a cell.

sladkih [1.3K]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Scientists are testing the effect of different scrubber technologies on the removal of pollutants from coal power plants. The scrubbers use a slurry of limestone and water. Which of the following best describes the impact of modifying the slurry by increasing the amount of limestone? The amount of sulfur dioxide released will decrease. A The amount of ground-level ozone released will decrease. B The amount of water released will increase. C The amount of carbon monoxide released will increase. "

Answer:

The amount of sulfur dioxide released will decrease.

Explanation:

As you may already know, coal is a fossil fuel and burning it releases many toxic gases into the atmosphere, including sulfur dioxide.

A suspension of water and limestone, allows the calcium present in limestone to enter into reaction with sulfur dioxide, forming calcium sulfide and decreasing the emission of sulfur in the atmosphere.

The greater the amount of limestone in this suspension, the less sulfur dioxide will be released into the environment.

Vesicles that come from the trans-golgi can fuse with which organelles?
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Transport vesicles, containing partially processed proteins, fuse with the folds of the <u>Golgi apparatus (cisternae)</u> on the cis face and bud from the cisternae on the more distal side (trans face).

Explanation:

Some of the matrix proteins form long, filamentous tethers that are thought to help retain Golgi transport vesicles close to the organelle. When the cell prepares to divide, mitotic protein kinases phosphorylate the Golgi matrix proteins, causing the Golgi apparatus to fragment and disperse throughout the cytosol.
