Answer:
If Red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the water moves into the cell. The cell swells and become turgid.
Explanation:
This is a type of osmosis. here plasma membrane of RBC works as semipermeable(only solute can move) osmotic membrane.
We all know that, osmosis is a process where liquid moves across semipermeable membrane from less concentration gradient to high concentration gradient.
There are three types of solution in respect of the concentration of cell's cytoplasm. These are
- Hypotionic (when the solution is dilute than the conc. of cytoplasm). In this condition water moves into the cell and the cell become turgid. this is known as deplasmolysis
- Hypertonic ( when the solution is concentrated than cytoplasm), In this condition water moves out from the cell and the cell become flaccid. This is known as plasmolysis.
- Isotonic (when both the conc. of cell and solution are same). No osmosis takes place.
Answer:
HIV destroys helper T cells
Explanation:
The evading viruses destroys helper T cells or the CD4+ thus the body can no longer stop some infections. The secondary infections also called opportunistic infections are rampant with people who have AIDS. This is because helper T cells help fight against most infections in the body.
I think the best answer would be A. since the number of prairie dogs decreased from the picture on the left to the picture on the right. Hope this helped :p
Answer:
Lower gravitational force due to lower mass.
Explanation:
Mars has lower gravitational force than Earth because of its lower size because mass has a direct effect on gravitational force of an object. Earth has mass of 5.972 × 10^24 kg which is 10 times greater than mass of Mars which is 6.4171 x 10^23 kg. So due to earth's more mass, it has more gravitational force than planet Mars which has lower mass than earth.
