4. Collect and measure the amount of rain in March and in April
Explanation - Rainfall can be measured by instruments like rain gauge. But in case rain gauge is not available then the rain water can be collected in a vessel having funnel at the top.
Measuring the amount of water falling each day in the month of march and april would give the idea about which month has more rainfall. The measurement might not be accurate but it gives a brief idea about how much centimeter of rain is occurring in both the months.
Answer :C) to prevent loss of ions to the surrounding water
Explanation :Basically,by closing the lamellae it prevents the entry of water by OSMOSIS , into high solute(ions) potential plasma .if the lamellae were not shut, osmosis drives water in, the fish produced hypotonic urine with resultant loss of ions,
Therefore with the closure of the lamellae, it countered continuous plasma ion loss, and ensure re-establishment of the water-ion balance in cells of muscle tissues and blood. Therefore, the net loss of plasma ions was cut down, and stability of the ion concentration ensured,as a result of a drop in the passive ion efflux to the surrounding aquatic medium.

The crucian carp (Carassius carassius) is a Northern European freshwater fish often inhabiting ponds that become hypoxic (have reduced oxygen levels) and even anoxic (have no oxygen) when the surface freezes during the winter. Surprisingly, when oxygen levels are normal, these fish lack the lamellae that provide a large surface area for gas exchange between water and blood: their gills are smooth. Yet when the level of oxygen in the water falls, the gill morphology undergoes a change: packing cells stop dividing and programmed cell death is induced, exposing gill lamellae that were buried in other tissue. With lamellae exposed, the gills have increased surface area for gas exchange. These changes in gill lamellar profile are reversible: investigators observed that the gills return to their normal structure within seven days after returning the fish to well-oxygenated water.

Answer:
causes a cell to change: hypotonic,hypertonic
doesnt change the shape of the cell: isotonic
I dont know what the 3rd one is
Causes a cell to shrink:Hypertonic
Explanation:
You make an educated guess in what you already know about the experiment.
Make sure you hypothesis is testable, It is not a question so dont make it sound like one <span />
