Water moves from an area of higher water potential (aka. "more water" in simple language) to an area of lower water potential (aka. "less water" in simple language).
For A, cells in carrots have water stored in their cytoplasm, where many soluble substances may be found (e.g. sodium ions). On the other hand, pure water has no other soluble substances other than the water molecules (I.e. H2O). Pure water will thus have a higher water potential as compared to the water in carrot cells, and so, water will move from pure water into the carrot cells via osmosis down a concentration gradient.
B. Corn syrup is water that has high concentrations of sugars, thus it is very likely to have a lower water potential than the cells of carrots. Water will move from within the cells of carrots and out to the corn syrup, down a concentration gradient.
C. The water in carrot cells will stay the same, since carrot cells have the same water potential as the surrounding solution which has the same water potential as cytoplasm.

It is a triangular shape and there 26 electrons all together but when shared each individual element has 8
There are three ways that scientists have proved that these sub-atomic particles exist. They are direct observation, indirect observation or inferred presence and predictions from theory or conjecture. Scientists in the 1800's were able to infer a lot about the sub-atomic world from chemistry.
Answer:
Potassium compounds are quite common and are extremely useful for a variety of purposes. Potash and other potassium compounds have been used for centuries in the manufacture of glass products. Today 95% of the potassium compounds gathered in the world is used in the manufacture of fertilizers.
Potassium dichromate is an inorganic chemical compound possess immense industrial and laboratory importance. It is an orange crystalline solid with the chemical formula K2Cr2O7. It is a strong oxidizing agent and is soluble in water. It is used in the volumetric estimation of ferrous salts, iodides and sulphides for the preparation of chrome alum, chrome yellow and chrome red.
The answer is 4. Hope it helps!
