A red blood cell is placed into a sugar water solution. The red blood cell has a lower concentration of protein and sugar than t

he outside solution, as shown in the diagram. In the diagram, the volume of the cell is equal to the volume outside the cell. Protein and sugar are both too big to move through this cell's membrane.

Answer:

remember that it will go from areas of low, to areas of high concentration based on the gradient. So if the RBC has a lower amount of sugar and protein than the concentration outside of this cell, the cell will shrink due to the sugar and protein leaving.

I hope this is an answer you are looking for

Becuase the cell has a lower concentration that the solution it is placed in, the solution is considered hypertonic. The cell will lose water through osmosis and will shrink, the 2nd option is correct.

Why is the frequency of recombinant gametes always half the frequency of crossing over?
kvv77 [185]
Crossing over occurs at the four-strand stage when two homologous chromosomes, each consisting of a pair of sister chromatids, are paired. Each crossover involves just two of the four strands and generates two recombinant strands.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

1Answer:

The correct answer is - D. how changes in biodiversity impact an ecosystem.

Explanation:

The water hyacinth is an invasive plant species that rapidly grows and creates a thick layer over the water surface in almost every aquatic ecosystem. The growth of the layer of this species causes problems to the environment, ecosystem, humans, and other species.

These aquatic plants reduce the oxygen level and other nutrients from the ecosystem it is introduced and affect the biodiversity by increasing heavy metals and contaminants.

The layer of this plant inhibits photosynthesis that decreases sugar and energy production and blocks the boat and ship movements and economically as well.
