Answer;

Because it is cheaper to prevent an illness than to treat an illness

Explanation;

-Health Maintenance Organization(HMO) plans offer a wide range of healthcare services through a network of providers who agree to supply services to members.

-According to HMOs it is better to prevent disease rather than to try to find cures for diseases after they occur, therefore they encourage healthy lifestyle practices.

-Prevention typically consists of methods or activities that seek to reduce or deter specific or predictable problems, protect the current state of well-being, or promote desired outcomes or behaviors.

Animal cells are placed in an isotonic solution. THEN, additional amounts of solute are added to the solution. What happens to t
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The animal cell will shrink due to loss of water to the external solution

Explanation:

An isotonic solution is that solution which has equal concentration with its external environment. Hence, no net movement of water occurs in an isotonic solution since there is no concentration gradient. Therefore, if an animal cell is placed in an isotonic solution at first, no net movement of water occurs because the intracellular and extracellular concentrations are at equilibrium.

However, if more solutes are added to the solution, it makes the solution HYPERTONIC to the cell i.e greater in concentration. This creates an osmotic gradient and causes water to move out of the animal cell into the solution in accordance to osmotic principles (movement of water from a low concentration of solute to high concentration of solute). This causes the animal cell to likely SHRINK.
