When red blood cells are placed in a hypertonic solution, the higher effective osmotic pressure of the bathing solution compared with the intracellular fluid results in water moving down its osmotic gradient and a net movement of water out of the cell via osmosis (10).

What is not representative of endocrine glands?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

" Ducts" is not the representative of endocrine glands.

Explanation:

The secretion of the endocrine glands are directly released into the blood stream . For this reason they can travel long distances and can reach any organ travelling through the blood in the body through different co-ordinate activity. Hence, ducts of the endocrine glands are not present to take their secretion to the target organ. They are mostly vascular in nature and they have intracellular vacuoles or may say granules that can easily store their hormones.

Luda [366]

Answer:

The answers have been explained below in separate paragraphs -

Explanation:

Yes, after stimulation, the muscle will generate force but the reaction of the muscle will not be visible because the force generated will be of low intensity and passive in nature and the load pulling the muscle downward will not allow it to move under the influence of this force.

After removing the platform the muscle will change length if the weight is still connected to the muscle. The connected weight will pull the muscle downward and as a result the length of the muscle will be increased. This increase in length will not be due to muscle contraction, it will only be due to the force pulling downward.

This type of contraction is termed as isometric contraction in which even though the muscle is activated but it is not allowed to contract or relax due to the presence of an external force.
