Hypothesis: If i add the egg to vinegar then the shell will dissolve within 24 hours

Biology

Answer :

Vinegar is a weak acid. This is used to make a naked egg. When an egg is added in the vinegar for one day / 24 hrs, it reacts with the eggshell.  The calcium carbonate shell gets dissolve.

Then an egg without shell is formed and the size of the egg does not change. The calcium carbonate reacts with acetic acid and forms carbon dioxide.

When the shell-less egg is kept in the vinegar for 48 hrs i.e. 2 days again, the water content in it enters into the eggs through the membrane. Then the egg gets somewhat bigger.

Otherwise, for 24 hrs, vinegar is acting like an isotonic solution and only dissolves the shell. This experiment would be done for showing the osmosis process through the cell membrane.

During which process does one bacterium inject its DNA into another
Svetllana [295]
DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another. After the donor cell pulls itself close to the recipient using a structure called a pilus, DNA is transferred between cells. In most cases, this DNA is in the form of a plasmid. An F+ donor cell contains its chromosomal DNA and an F plasmid

Answer:

Generally, K+ ions ensures re-polarization of  the membrane potential. It always ensures that the neuron returns its resting  state, protecting the  neurons and ensuring episode of rest before the next action potential.

K+ does this by leaving the axon, making the inner layer more negative. This is resting membrane potential. Because there are many K+ channels for leakages out of the neuronal axons.

Therefore, in this scenario, he neuron will return to its resting membrane potential state which between values -50 to -75mV.

Therefore the value of the potential will be -60mV, or within the range of -50 to -60mV. This is because the neuron is is non- excitable.

What I got to have

Eutrophication (from Greek eutrophos, "well-nourished") is the process by which an entire body of water, or parts of it, becomes progressively enriched with minerals and nutrients. It has also been defined as a "nutrient-induced increase in phytoplankton productivity". Water bodies with very low nutrient levels are termed oligotrophic and those with moderate nutrient levels are termed mesotrophic. Advanced eutrophication may also be referred to as dystrophic and hypertrophic conditions. Eutrophication in freshwater ecosystems is almost always caused by excess phosphorus.
