Annette observed that if she put salad dressing on her salad in the morning before leaving home, by lunch time she found excess

liquid in her container and the greens were wilted. Why does this happen? A) Condensation from the refrigerator accumulates in the salad container. B) The dressing creates a hypertonic solution around plant cells, which causes water to diffuse out of the cell plasmolysing the cells. C) The dressing creates an isotonic solution around plant cells, which causes water to diffuse into and out of the plant cells making them flaccid. D) The dressing creates a hypotonic solution around plant cells, which causes water to diffuse into the cell creating an increase in turgor pressure

B. the salad is wilted because it lost water in a hypertonic solution

The correct answer is option B

When the salad is fresh without dressing then the environment outside the plant cell and inside is isotonic.

As soon as the dressing is put over the salad then after sometime the dressing creates an hypertonic environment around the plant cell and water comes out of the plant cell (salad) as a result of plasmolysis.

Select all the potential effects of damming a river.
bonufazy [111]

The answer is; C & E

Building a dam alters the water regime down the dam. The dam also affects fish migration along the river, alters the transportation of sediments by the river downstream, and changes temperatures within the local environment of the dam. These changes, however, the subtle effect the ecosystem around the dam and down the river. The potential energy of the water held by the dam is, however, high and used to produce more electricity.

1. How are populations of chimpanzees affected by slash and burn agriculture? 2. Which features of chimpanzees make them more di
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

1. Slash and Burn agriculture refers to a technique of farming that requires plants in a forest or woodland to be decimated to create a cultivable expanse of land.

Some of these plants are usually homes to wild chimpanzees. The more they are cut down, the deeper into the forests they would migrate, that's if they ever find a place like it.  

2. When compared to the other primates such as monkeys, baboons, etc their larger body size, puts them at a disadvantage. This is because when they are placed in a restricted space, they need more food which in turn translates to increased height and weight.

Cheers!

why is important to use an organism with a recessive phenotype in a cross with an organism of unknown Genotype
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

One of the central conclusions Mendel reached after studying and breeding multiple generations of pea plants was the idea that "[you cannot] draw from the external resemblances [any] conclusions as to [the plants'] internal nature." Today, scientists use the word "phenotype" to refer to what Mendel termed an organism's "external resemblance," and the word "genotype" to refer to what Mendel termed an organism's "internal nature." Thus, to restate Mendel's conclusion in modern terms, an organism's genotype cannot be inferred by simply observing its phenotype. Indeed, Mendel's experiments revealed that phenotypes could be hidden in one generation, only to reemerge in subsequent generations. Mendel thus wondered how organisms preserved the "elementen" (or hereditary material) associated with these traits in the intervening generation, when the traits were hidden from view.

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Answer to 1: a black hole is a tremendous amount of matter crammed into a very small (zero) amount of space. Answer to 2: the top of your head would feel so much more gravitational pull than the tips of your toes that you would be stretched, longer and longer Answer to 3: <em><u>A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light can not get out.</u></em> The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. because no light can get out, people can't see black holes Answer to 4: <u>stellar, intermediate, supermassive, and miniature.</u> Answer to 5: the asymmetry of bright and dark sections of the ring are caused by the Doppler effect as the matter is coming toward Earth (brighter) or receding (dimmer).
