Answer:

C. Water leaves the cell, causing the cell to shrivel up.

Explanation:

When a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution which has more solute concentration than the cytoplasm, water from the cell leaves towards the outer solution to balance the concentration.

Movement of water from the cell to the outer solution is called exosmosis. The loss of water from the cytoplasm makes the cell to shrink.

AysviL [449]

Answer:

In order to propose a hypothesis, there is a need to first see the function of gills in fishes. The gills of fishes comprise blood vessels that exhibit inherited tendencies of getting oxygen out of the water, which was consumed by fishes from their mouths. These gills also comprise thin walls, and when water moves over these walls of blood vessels, the oxygen from water moves into the blood, and then this oxygen-enriched blood goes to various organs.  

Thus, one of the hypotheses in the given case, can be the number of blood vessels, which are found in the gills of the mentioned freshwater fish to be higher in comparison to the blood vessels found in the normal fishes, and apart from this, the surface area of the thin walls, which are found in the gills is also more in the new species of freshwater fish.

BigorU [14]

Answer:

49

It says that there are eight four-base repeat unites that make up the remaining 32 bases. This means that it 8 x 4 = 32. Then from 32 + 9 = 41 is how you get all of the bases in the original. However, if there were to be 10 repeat units then it would be <u><em>10</em></u> x 4 = 40. Then from there you would get 40 + 9 = 49. Hope my explanation helped somewhat.
