Hypertonic solution means the solution with a lower water potential than the cell cytoplasm, such as salt water.
When the red blood cell is put into it, since the cell has a higher water potential than the solution, water molecules will flow from the cell back into the water due to osmosis.
Osmosis is always where water molecules flow from a region of higher water potential to lower, through a semi permeable membrane (Whcih is the red blood cell membrane in this case.)
Since water flowed out of the cell, the cell lose water and shrinks.
Hypotonic solution is where the solution that has a higher water potential than the cell cytoplasm.
So when the red blood cell is put in that solution, the water will flow from the solution into the cell this time, by osmosis.
The red blood cell will then gain so much water that the cell membrane cannot hold all and therefore burst.
Answer:
The Answer I believe to be correct is A. They attract birds and insects to assist in pollination.
Explanation:
Answer:
Yes, the answer is wood.
Explanation:
Wood is a natural material and is subject to variations in composition and moisture content. Therefore the energy from burning it or gasifying it would likewise be variable.
not sure what the purpose of this question was, but here's the explanation anyway! have a nice day.
Yes, it's A. Spinach and cabbage are (A) the leaves of plants. Spinach do have flowers but they are not the flowers itself while cabbages don't have flowers. Cabbages and Spinach don't have fruits either.
