Answer:
So 1 ml=1 cm^3, so 40ml is 40 cm^3
D= m/v
density = 30/40
Density of oil is 0.75 g/cm^3 (which is verified as oil is less dense than water hence floats on it)
Explanation:
To prevent cells from either shrinking or swelling you should keep them in an isotonic solution. Isotonic solution is a solution with equal amount of solute and solvent. Therefore, when cells are placed in such a solution they will not lose or gain water, as opposed to hypertonic (more solute than solvent) and hypotonic (more solvent than solute) solutions.
