I belive the answer would be "A" because the cell would be trying to delute the solution on the outside, and strenghting the solution on the inside.

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The water will flow from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.

The cheek cell has 96% water while the medium in which it is placed has only 70% of water (as it has 30% of NaCl). Therefore the water will flow out from the cell into the medium where it is placed.

Hence, option a is correct.

ehidna [41]
Well you see each of the seeds have developed a special technique that allows their individual seeds to travel further and lower the probability of landing close to the tree and not getting the sunlight it needs

For the berries birds and various animals eat them carrying them away so hopefully they can get more sunlight

Helicopter seeds do the same thing except the sides themselves float away from the tree to get  a further distance.

Finally the acorn seeds of the oak tree use the same concept of the berries. Various squirrels do eat these kinds of nuts and bury them in the ground in hopes of finding them later. But due to squirrels not remembering where they buried their acorn seeds the acorns are well away from the tree and start growing. 

So you see all of these tree seeds are specially developed to help it get away from the trees. Especially so that they can grow in a much better environment than the one provided to them initially.

Lilit [14]

George is lifting weights. He starts by doing biceps curls which involves flexing his elbows.  His elbow is able to bend because the humero-ulnar joint is a hinge joint.  Sam is doing leg presses, extending his knees as he pushes against the weights. Meanwhile, Jane is doing "lat pulls" by pulling downward on a weighted bar. This movement involves adduction of her arms.  Her shoulder joint is a  ball-and-socket joint, allowing a wide range of movements.
