HACTEHA [7]3 years ago

A solution to be isotonic refers to b) The concentration of solute in the environment and the concentration inside the cell are at equilibrium.

  • Isotonic solution is the solution that have equal concentration of solute on both sides of the solution separated by a membrane.
  • If a cell is kept in an isotonic solution that means the concentration of the solute inside the cell is the same as that of the outside then the movement of solvent does not occur between the cell and the external environment.
  • The osmotic pressure inside the cell and outside the cell across the semipermeable membrane of the cell becomes the same due to equal concentration of the solute on each side.

0.9% normal saline is an example of isotonic solution.

Nat2105 [25]
The answer is - Never.

40 degrees of latitude, be it on the southern or northern part of the Earth, never gets direct sunlight throughout the year. This is due to the fact that the Earth's inclination is not that big so that the sunlight can fall directly on this latitude, in fact, the inclination of the Earth allows the sunlight to fall directly on the surface only to the lines of 23.5 degrees north and south of the Equator.

maw [93]

Complete Question:

1. Organisms don’t all reproduce the same way. However, by comparing the ____ of these organisms, many similarities between them are ____

2. of these organisms, many similarities between them are revealed. These similarities suggest that they’re ___ linked. This type of study is called developmental biology.

Group of answer choices.

A) Cells B) Embryos C) Mode of reproduction D) Evolutionarily. E). Revealed.

Answer:

embryo; revealed; evolutionarily.

Explanation:

Reproduction can be defined as a biological process which typically involves living organisms producing an offspring.

Basically, there are two (2) methods of reproduction and these are;

I. Asexual reproduction: it involves the cloning of a living organism to produce an offspring because there is only a single parent.

II. Sexual reproduction: it involves the combination of the genome (gamete) of a male and female living organism during fertilization.

It's a fact that all living organisms do not reproduce the same way.

However, by comparing the embryo of these organisms, many similarities between them are revealed. These similarities suggest that they’re evolutionarily linked.

Hence, we refer to this type of study as developmental biology
