When you drink sea water, what type of solution do you expose your cells to?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer should be 1, hypertonic.

Seawater is highly concentrated in salt, and with that being said, it has a low concentration of water molecules.

Hypertonic means the solution has a lower water concentration than the other side (cell), vice versa for hypotonic, a high water concentration than the other side of the solution, and for isotonic, it means that both sides of the solution have the same water concentration.

So, the answer should be 1, hypertonic.

In addition, when your cells are exposed to hypertonic solution, the water molecules in your cells will start flowing out of the cells, to the outside, due to the difference in water concentration leading to osmosis. Your cells will lose so much water that they may even shrink!

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

A malaria outbreak causing allele frequencies to change is an example of natural selection.

Explanation:

Natural selection is a type of selection in which those organisms are favoured to live and reproduce which are better adapted to live in an environment. Due to natural selection, the allele frequencies of a population will tend to change with the passage of time.

When the outbreak of malaria occurs, those organisms which do not catch malaria are able to survive and pass on their characteristics to their offsprings. the other organisms die and do not reproduce. This will cause changes in the allele frequencies.

anastassius [24]

The statement which is true about the inheritance of hemophilia is that it is a recessive trait on the X chromosome. Thus, the correct option for this question is C.

<h3>What is Hemophilia?</h3>

Hemophilia may be defined as an inherited bleeding disorder in which the blood does not clot properly. This can lead to spontaneous bleeding as well as bleeding following injuries or surgery.

Hemophilia is significantly caused by the lack of clotting factor VIII or IX in the blood. In most cases, hemophilia is passed down through families (inherited). Most of the time, it is passed to male children. Several women in the family were carriers of the allele for the disorder, only men ended up actually expressing the disorder.

Therefore, the statement which is true about the inheritance of hemophilia is that it is a recessive trait on the X chromosome. Thus, the correct option for this question is C.
