Answer:

The act of measuring

The law of stars

Explanation:

A suffix is a morpheme added after the stem of a word to form a derivative, i.e. a new word. Here, you were given two examples of suffixes - <em>-ment </em>and <em>- nomy</em>, and their meanings.

The word <em>measurement </em>is derived from the verb <em>to measure</em> (<em>measure + -ment = measurement</em>). Based on the meaning of the suffix <em>-ment</em>, we can conclude that the meaning of the given word is <em>the act of measuring.</em>

The word <em>astronomy </em>is of Greek origin (<em>astronomos </em>- literally translated as <em>the science that studies the laws of the stars</em>). The root of the word (<em>astro</em>) is derived from the Greek <em>aster</em>, which means<em> a star</em>. Based on this and the meaning of the suffix -<em>nomy</em>, we can conclude that the meaning of the word <em>astronomy </em>is <em>the law of stars. </em>

FOR BIOLOGY I MADE A MISTAKE
lord [1]

Answer:

A-The cell was submerged in a hypertonic solution.

Explanation:

A hypertonic solution is a solution with higher concentration of solute or dissolved particle than that of its surrounding.

When normal cells and animal cells are submerged in a hypertonic solution, the cell loses water to its surrounding, thereby shrinking.

The statement which best explains what occurred to the Elodea cell when submerged in a solution, is:

"A-The cell was submerged in a hypertonic solution."

This explains why the cytoplasm of Elodea became shrunk as it pulls away from the cell wall, thereby clumping together at the center of the cell.
