Sunlight - it is the only thing that is not living in the list.
Answer and explanation:
If a human blood cell with a 0.9% solute concentration were to be put into a container of 0% solute solution, the cell would get BIGGER.
<u>The cell contains a </u><u>more concentrated solution</u><u> than the solution in the container</u>. The difference in concentration would produce an <em>osmotic gradient</em> that would cause water from the container to get inside the cell to even the concentrations - this is going to make the cell much bigger because the entering water would bloat the cell.
In this example, the solution in the container is hypotonic in relation to the cell, while the solution inside the cell is hypertonic in relation to the solution in the container. This is why the water will be moving from outside of the cell to the inside of the cell.
Question 8-
(a) move out of the cell
(b) cell would shrink
(c) hypertonic
Queston 9-
(a) move into the cell
(b) cell would swell
(c) hypotonic
Answer:
Passive Transport
Explanation:
The movement of molecules from an area of High concentration to an area of lower concentration in a living cell is called Passive Transport.
Passive Transport does not require energy input.
An example is Diffusion.
An atom that has gained or lost electrons is called an ion
