Make a hypothesis about what would happen if you placed an onion cell into a strong salt solution. Please explain.

4 0

When you put the cells in a salt solution you are placing the cells into a hypertonic solution. That means the solute concentration outside the cell is higher than the solute concentration inside the cell. You should know from your own studies that water will move from areas of high water concentration to areas of low water concentration. A hight solute concentration means there is low water concentration. That means that the water will move from the onion cell and out into the hypertonic solution and the onion cell will shrivel up.

Brums [2.3K]

A. A mold produces a chemical that kills bacteria without apparently benefiting. - amensalism

B. Aerobic bacteria in the human colon consume oxygen, making it possible for anaerobic species to survive. - commensalism

C. "Flagellates live in the gut of termites, feeding on the wood consumed by the termite and allowing the termite access to nutrition and energy in wood that they could not otherwise digest" - mutualism

D. "A helminth takes up residence in a human digestive tract, consuming nutrients" - parasitism

Explanation:

Amensalism is any relationship between organisms of different species in which one organism is inhibited or destroyed while the other organism remains unaffected.

Two examples of antibiosis amensalism are provided by the bread mold Penicillium and black walnut trees.

Amensalism is the association between organisms of two different species in which one is inhibited or destroyed and the other is unaffected.

Commensalism is a long-term biological interaction in which members of one species gain benefits while those of the other species neither benefit nor are harmed.

Mutualism describes the ecological interaction between two or more species where each species has a net benefit. Mutualism is a common type of ecological interaction.

parasitism is a symbiotic relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or in another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life
