<span>The answer is that cell will shrink.</span>
<span>If you put an animal cell in a hypertonic solution means that concentration of the solutes is greater outside the cell, in the solution, than in the cell. Consequently,</span> the water concentration of the cell's cytoplasm is higher than that of the hypertonic solution. Since the aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the cell, the water will exit the cell. The cell will lose water and, consequently, will shrink in size.
Answer:
The answer is:
B. Worms consuming the blood from mammals.
Algae isn't causing any harm to the sloth, rather its providing it with camouflage to hide from predators. Both creatures benefits since the algae gets to eat any parasites and other things in the sloths fur, plus they get a free ride and home in the process. The sloth isn't harmed and is helped by the algae since it provides camouflage (mutualism).
Tree frogs aren't causing harm to the trees since they are only using them to hide from predators, the tree serves as protection for the frogs and aren't harmed in the process (commensalism).
Two fish protecting each other from predators aren't harming each other in any way, rather they are protecting each other from another animal that wants to eat them (mutualism).
The worms however are harming the mammals because they are consuming the mammals blood, this is parasitism since one animal is benefiting and the other is harmed.
Hope this helps! :)
Classification systems previously were having very different goals than modern classification systems. If we look at old eras, scientists like Aristotle and Theophrastus tried to classify organisms on the basis of apparent characteristics, habitat and simple other traits.
Old classification systems had alot of errors and flaws. For example they classified fish and whale in one group because they lived in water, now we know fish is amphibian while whale is mammal.
So we can say that the goal o earlier classification system were just to make groups of organisms on the basis of External features.
Goal of modern classification system:
Modern classification approach was started by Linnaeus. It focuses more on biological delimitation and evolutionary histories than mere external characteristics. It organizes organisms in groups in such a way that grouping reflects their evolutionary relatedness. It is not just specie level but also focuses on sub-specie and population level classification.
Thus modern goal is better in many terms and is more reliable than old classification goals.
Hope it helps!
