Answer: There was a lower concentration of salt in the water than in the cells.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a process in which the solvent flow from a solution of low concentration to a solution of high concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.  

When the red blood cells are put in water that contained salt and the red blood cells burst after some time.

This means the solvent has moved from outside to inside the cell and this is possible only when the concentration of solute is high inside the cell than outside. That means the solution has low concentration of solute as compared to the cell and was a hypotonic solution.

What happens to water when it warms above 4 C
xxMikexx [17]
At 4 °C, the clusters start forming. The molecules are still slowing down and coming closer together, but the formation of clusters makes the molecules be further apart. Thus, the density of water is a maximum at 4 °C.

1) What is air pressure? (4 Points)
Nataly [62]

<span>1)    </span><span>What is air pressure? (Answ</span>er: Atmospheric pressure, sometimes also called barometric pressure, is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.)

<span>2)    </span><span>What is a barometer and what is it used to measure? <span>(Answer: A barometer is a scientific instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure. Pressure tendency can forecast short term changes in the weather.)</span></span>

<span>3)    </span><span>How does air pressure change?  <span>(Answer: Millibar values used in meteorology range from about 100 to 1050. At sea level, standard air pressure in millibars is 1013.2. Weather maps showing the pressure at the surface are drawn using millibars. ... This change in pressure is caused by changes in air density, and air density is related to temperature.)</span></span>

<span>4)    </span><span>Why is cooler, drier air related to High Pressure? <span>(Answer: This is due to density differences between the two air masses. Since stronger high-pressure systems contain cooler or drier air, the air mass is denser and flows towards areas that are warm or moist, which are in the vicinity of low pressure areas in advance of their associated cold fronts.)</span></span>

<span>5)    </span><span>Why is warm, moister air related to Low Pressure?  <span>(Answer: When air warms, its molecules scatter. The air becomes lighter and rises.)</span></span>
