Answer:

The cell will shrink due to osmosis.

Explanation:

As in given question the salt concentration are much more inside the cell, than outside. In order to maintain equilibrium. the water inside the cell will start flowing outside in order to maintain equilibrium, causing shrinkage of cell. The ability of a cell to divide or function will reduce because of water loss. This phenomenon is seen in case of hypertonic solution. Water will start diffusing from the higher concentration to the lower concentration.

Do you think the shape of orchids is pure Mendelian inheritance, or is it more complex?
Mandarinka [93]

The genetic base of the shape of orchid is very complex.

Mendelian traits are described as simple traits determined by one gene. The different alleles of the gene contribute to the difference in the trait. This is true for some traits in plants, animals including humans and other organisms, but not for the shape of orchids.

The shape of orchid flowers is determined by the ABCDE group of genes that are responsible for the body plan in plants. These genes are the equivalent of HOX genes of animals.

The protein products of different genes of the ABCDE group interact with each other in complex ways creating different shapes of orchids.
