A contusion occurs when a strong blow or repeated blows from an object struck the body, crushing the underlying muscle fibres and connective tissues without breaking the skin.
A contusion can vary in severity depending on the object and location of the injury. For example a contusion to the brain may cause a concussion that can cause serious symptoms that require immediate medical attention
Answer:
Statement A - cellular membrane
Statement B - eukaryote
Statement C - spore
Statement D - prokaryote
Explanation:
The cell membrane is a protective layer present around the cell and cell organelle that regulates and allows different molecules to enter and exit to regulate homeostasis.
Eukaryotes are the organism that can be unicellular or multicellular with the cells contain a nucleus in it.
Spores are reproductive cells that has a resistant layer that protects the cell from an unfavorable condition and capable to form an adult.
An organism that is unicellular and lacks the nucleus is known as a prokaryote and bacteria is an example of such organisms.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The net movements of water from the region of higher water potential to the region of low water potential through a selectively permeable membrane is osmosis. It is a form of diffusion which involves the transport of water molecules.
In this present scenario water molecules pass through the selectively permeable membrane from higher water potential in the body, to lower water potential but high solute potential (Epsom salts). The later is called an hypertonic solution,this is because it has higher solute potential ,thus higher salt concentration than the surrounding medium,therefore water pass by osmosis into the Epsom salts.
If one is placed in this solution,the cells shrink as they lose water to the more concentrated Epsom.(hypertonic solution)
However, the body homeostatic mechanism through the kidney ensure re-absorption of fluid back to the body from the DCT and CT, via anti diuretic hormone to preserve the cell and the person.
The purpose of beach nourishment is
B. to replenish sand on a beach
A. to mitigate beach erosion for a period of time
Beach nourishment is the process of placing additional sediment on a beach or in the nearshore. A wider and higher beach can give storm protection for coastal structures, create new habitates, and strengthen the beach for recreation.
<span>It is through whistles that dolphins interact with the pod. Each dolphin has a distinct whistle that identifies it with other dolphins of its pod. If an individual is in danger, it uses a particular noise that indicates aid is needed, so the pod responds quickly.

Small dolphin species gather into multi-member pods as a way to compensate for their size when facing predators.</span>
