Osmosis causes water to move from areas of low salt concentration to areas of high salt concentration. The internal NaCl concent

ration of red blood cells is 0.9 M. The diagram below shows red blood cells submerged in solutions of four different NaCl concentrations—0 M, 0.65 M, 0.9 M, and 2 M. Which of the diagrams shows red blood cells in the 2 M solution?

<span>Red blood cells normally have a biconcave shape (picture a donut, but instead of a hole through the centre there's just a downward slope to the centre of the cell). If the cell takes on water, it will increase in size and the sloped areas will start to flatten out. If the cell loses water, it will begin to shrivel. Use these observations and your understanding of osmosis to answer the question!</span>

You haven't given us the diagrams, but in case you're asking about the shape, imagine this: a disc, with a sunken centre, starting to resemble a donut.

In a low salt solution, the cells would start to absorb water, thus, inflating, up to the point of resembling spheres, and even bursting in the end. In case of a salty solution like the one you proposed, blood cells would lose water and would become a bit amorphous. In the attached pic you can see a standard blood cell (on the left), and a cell submerged in a salty solution (on the right).

A delta fibers can rapidly transmit pain information to the brain because
kirill [66]
<span>A delta fibers can rapidly transmit pain information to the brain because alpha delta fiber is a type of sensory nerve fiber. Aδ fibers carry cold, pressure and some pain signals. Because Aδ fibers are thinly myelinated, they send impulses faster than unmyelinated C fibers, but more slowly than other, more thickly myelinated "A" class fibers.</span>

Assuming that other factors are equal, how are the birthrate and death rate
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

In a stable population, if all the other factors are equal then the birth rate should be equal to the death rate in order to maintain the stability.

Explanation:

The birth rate is described as the number of births taking place in an area per year. Death rate is described as the number of deaths taking place in an area in a year.

In order to maintain a stable population, the birth rate should be equal to the death rate. If there are more number of births than the number of deaths, then it would mean more competition for resources like food, water etc.
