Suppose you made a lettuce salad in the afternoon, added salt and other seasonings, and then put the salad in the refrigerator.

When you took the salad out of the refrigerator for dinner, the lettuce looked wilted and some water was in the bottom of the bowl. Use the principles of osmosis to explain what happened.

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

Osmosis refers to the movement of solvent (mostly water) molecules through a selectively (semi) permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration, in such a way as to equate the solute concentrations on both sides.

The salt (solute) is in higher concentration outside the lettuce. Hence, water moves from inside the lettuce where there is lower salt concentration outwards to the point of higher solute concentration in order to equate the salt concentration on both sides.

Which organism is NOT made up of 1or more eukaryotic cells?
nalin [4]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Methanogens are prokaryotes and therefore have prokaryotic cells. They are single-celled archaea. They are found in hypoxic conditions like the first stomach of ruminants where they digest molecules like cellulose and produce methane as a byproduct. The rest are composed of eukaryotic cells which are much larger than prokaryotic cells and their organelles are membrane-bound (unlike prokaryotes).
