Answer:
actively pump water back into their cells to counter its loss due to osmosis
Explanation:
- When an organism actively regulates the osmotic pressure of the bodily fluids present in the body in order to maintain homeostasis in the body then this is termed as osmoregulation.
- Since, the Great salt lake in Utah has a lot of salt in it, the water content in the surroundings of the brine shrimp is much less and hence, the water will move out of the brine shrimp's body as osmosis causes the movement of the water from higher concentration of water to lower concentration of water.
- However, movement of water out from shrimp's body would cause it to desiccate and hence, it must have an actively pumping system that pumps the water back into their cells in order to compensate for the water lost due to osmosis.
Earth is comprised of atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere.
Explanation:
The earth is comprised of three system which is present in solid, liquid and gas they are lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere. Combination of all three sphere is known as biosphere where life exist. Lithosphere is defined as the area of earth which is solid in nature, it is comprised of land part of the earth.
Hydrosphere is defined as the area of earth which is liquid in nature, it is comprised of all the water bodies present in the earth. Atmosphere is defined as the area of earth which is gaseous in nature; it is comprised of air in the earth. The first life originates in the water. The combination of all three is known as biosphere.
