You are a tomato farmer whose crops are threatened by a persistent species of beetle. Each year, you spend large sums of money f

or pesticides to protect your crops. A biotechnology company introduces a new strain of tomato plant that produces a natural pesticide, making it resistant to the beetle. By switching to this new strain, you could avoid both the beetle and the chemical pesticides traditionally needed to fight it.

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Do you switch to new plant? Why or why not?

Yes, because it would help me get rid of the beetle naturally and save cost for purchasing pesticides.

Explanation:

This question is describing the genetically modified strain of tomato plant introduced by a biotechnology company. The GM tomato plant naturally repels the beetle pest that has been threatening the tomato planted by a me, who is the farmer.

However, the farmer has been spending a huge sum of of money for pesticides to protect his crops. Hence, I would opt to switch to this new strain, so I could avoid both the beetle and the cost of chemical pesticides traditionally needed to fight it. That is, by using the Genetically Modified strain of tomato, I can naturally get rid of the beetle pest and simultaneously save the cost of procuring a control measure (pesticides).

Answer:

The answer to these questions are the following:

1. sucrose solution (higher concentration of water molecules in the onion cells) >> red onion cells will shrink >> smaller diameter

2. distilled water (higher concentration of water molecules in the surrounding solution) >> red onion cells will become turgid >> higher diameter

Osmosis refers to the movement of a solvent (usually water molecules) across semipermeable biological membranes, which occurs from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. There are three classes of solutions that have different effects on cells due to the process of osmosis:

1. In a hypotonic solution, the cells will become turgid  

2. In an isotonic solution, the cells will become flaccid.  

3. In a hypertonic solution, the cells will shrink (plasmolysis)

When plant cells are placed into a hypertonic solution where there is a greater concentration of solute outside the cells (as in this case sucrose solution), water molecules will move from inside the cells to outside the cells, thereby cells will shrink due to water loss

When plant cells are placed into a hypotonic solution that is diluted in comparison to the content of the cell (as in this case plant cells placed in distilled water) water molecules will move from outside the cells to inside the cells, thereby cells will become turgid.
