Is hypertonic active or passive transport

Biology
1 answer:
Len [333]3 years ago

I'm a little confused by this question. Hypertonic just means that something has more of something than another thing. For example, if you place a cell in a solution, and 2% of the cell is made out of something while the solution is made out of 40% of the same thing, the solution would be hypertonic to the cell. Sorry if that explanation doesn't make sense, I tried my best lol.

Although I'd assume the answer is passive transport as anything that is hypertonic to something else will diffuse down its gradient in an attempt to reach a balance.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A rainforest is humid, therefore, water uptake would likely not be an issue. However, rainforests have a huge number of trees, often these are very tall. These large trees might block out the sun from the smaller plants nearer the ground. This means they would struggle to properly photosynthesise, as they wouldn't have the necessary light energy.

Therefore, as a survival adaptation, it is likely that an allele that produced broader leaves for photosynthesis would be selected for in this population. Broader leaves would give a larger surface area for the plant to absorb light energy to perform photosynthesis.

Answer:

How respiratory system works?

What are the components of respiratory system?

Explanation:

Our lungs expand when we breathe in through our nose and mouth. That air moves down our trachea, through your bronchi and into the bronchioles, where it enters your alveoli where blood capillaries are passes which load oxygen and unload carbondioxide gas which can be removed from our body through exhalation. Nose, mouth, throat (pharynx), voice box (larynx) , windpipe (trachea) , large airways (bronchi)  and lungs are the main components of our respiratory system.
