Explanation:
(although a few types of rock may include only one type of mineral). Examples of minerals are feldspar, quartz, mica, halite, calcite, and amphibole
Answer:
The cell will shrink
Explanation:
Osmosis is the net movement of water molecules through a semipermeable membrane like the cell membrane from a region where their concentration is low to a region of high concentration. When the external solution has a higher osmotic pressure than the cell contents, then it is said to be hypertonic. The cell was placed in a hypertonic solution. The concentration gradient between the outside and the inside makes water molecules to move through the cell membrane to the external solution. This makes the cell to shrink due to loss of water.
The largest population that an environment can support is called its carrying capacity.
Determining the carrying capacities for most organisms is fairly straightforward. For humans carrying capacity is much more complicated. The definition is expanded to include not degrading our cultural and social environments and not harming the physical environment in ways that would adversely affect future generations.
For populations which grow exponentially, growth starts out slowly, enters a rapid growth phase and then levels off when the carrying capacity for that species has been reached.
