Answer: C. The red blood cells released water through osmosis. The release of water helped the blood cells keep a similar concentration of solutes as the outside solution.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a process whereby water molecules move from an area where they are in higher concentration than a solute to an area where they are in lower concentration. They do this by moving through a selectively-permeable membrane.

With sugar added to the solution, the water in the red blood cells will have a higher concentration of water in the cells than the solution so water molecules will move from the cell - through the cell membrane - to the solution. They will keep doing so till the concentration of solutes are more or less similar in both the cells and the solution.

What does cellular respiration have to do with metabolic processes?

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Metabolism refers to all the chemical reactions in the body, including those that use oxygen and create carbon dioxide. Oxygen and carbon dioxide, therefore, are involved in both respiration and metabolism. Metabolic reactions are sometimes referred to as cellular respiration, which can cause confusion.

The image shows the evolution of a species of fish. A few fish from a population developed different social behaviors and evolve

adell [148]

According to the image, the fish underwent sympatric speciation. The new species of fish had mating seasons that were different from that of the original fish. Because of the differences in mating seasons, the fish underwent reproductive isolation. This mode of isolation would be temporal.

Sympatric speciation happens within a population of an organism that gets isolated reproductively due to differences in their mating periods. This time dependent isolation is called temporal isolation. Example, a fish population can split into two if some of the fishes start mating early in the spring while the rest mate late in the autumn. The spring-mating population will not become compatible to mate with the late-autumn-mating population.
