Answer:
c) pure water on the produce would put it in a hypotonic environment and keep the produce firm.
Explanation:
Ideally, in a natural environment, plants leafs remain fresh and firm looking by absorbing water from their natural environment. However, in a case where these vegetables have been removed from their natural environment, they have lost the ability to absorb water under natural conditions.
In order to keep the leaf cells of the vegetables firm and rigid, so they can look fresh and appealing, they have to be placed in a hypotonic condition i.e. an external condition with high concentration of water. To do this, a grocer in a supermarket will occasionally spray the vegetables with pure water to keep the vegetables' cell from drying out and hence lead to wilting, which would make the vegetables less appealing to customers.
Experiments in general are more reliable when a greater sample size is used. When using a small sample size, a mistake or fluke can greatly effect the outcome of the experiment. With a large sample size, there is more data to understand averages and deviations to the average data. The average will likely be more accurate with more data, which would make his sample size more reliable.
Answer:
he organisms that can fix energy from inorganic sources into organic molecules are called autotrophs. Organisms that cannot make their food from inorganic sources but depend on energy rich organic molecules synthesized by autotrophs for their energy needs are called heterotrophs.
The only source of energy for all the ecosystems of the earth is the sun. Light falling on the plants is trapped by the producers or autotrophs in the presence of chlorophyll and is used in synthesizing the organic food called glucose by the process of photosynthesis. By photosynthesis radiant energy of sunlight is transformed into potential energy of food. A part of this energy is trapped by the producers while the rest of the energy is dissipated. The remaining part of energy which is used in the synthesis of plant biomass is called photosynthate which is then available to the next trophic level in the food chain that is the consumers or heterotrophs. In an ecosystem there is a unidirectional flow of energy.
I would say its A because it is doing something harmful
