Answer: Water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink.
Explanation:
Osmosis is the net movement of water from an area of low to high concentration of solutes through a semipermeable membrane. If none of the compartments contains solutes, then the water moves in either direction between the compartments. <u>However, if we add a solute to one of the compartments, this will affect the probability of water molecules leaving that compartment and moving into the other compartment.</u> The ability of water to move into or out of a cell is called tonicity. The tonicity of a solution is related to its osmolarity, which is the total concentration of all the solutes in the solution. A solution with low osmolarity has few solute particles per liter of solution, whereas a solution with high osmolarity has many solute particles per liter of solution. When two solutions with different osmolarities are separated by a membrane permeable to water but not permeable to solutes, water diffuses from the side with lower osmolarity to the side with higher osmolarity. So, solutions can be:
- <u>Hypotonic</u>: The extracellular fluid has a lower osmolarity than the fluid inside the cell, it is hypotonic with respect to the cell, and the net flow of water will be into the cell.
- <u>Hypertonic</u>: The extracellular fluid has a higher osmolarity than the cytoplasm of the cell, it is hypertonic with respect to the cell and water will flow out of the cell.
- <u>Isotonic</u>: The extracellular fluid and the cell have the same osmolarity so there is no net movement of water.
If a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink due to the difference in pressure and may even die from dehydration.
Answer:
The TATA box is an alternating sequence of Adenine and Guanine nucleotides that transcription factors bind to. The TATA box is found just before a gene. The transcription factors tell the RNA polymerase where to bind to begin transcription. This ensures the RNA polymerase will know where to start and which gene to transcribe.
Explanation:
I believe its A. I may be wrong.
Answer:
Education
Explanation:
Education is not among the top sources of stress for Americans according to the American Psychological Association. The American Psychological Association is an organization that represents psychologists in the United States. The APA researches various matters like abortion, human rights, detainees and so on. In 2010, the APA conducted a survey on stress and their findings include there is high stress in America; self-care isn’t a priority and lack of will power and concludes that work, health, and money are the top sources of stress in America.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Okay so look at the diagram. Start from the middle and work your way out.
AUG: I find A in the middle (the first four) and then go to the part of the diagram that has U right under the last letter you had, so A. And do the same for U, and you should get methionine.
Repeat this process for the other two.
