Due to environmental changes, the water concentration outside of a cell becomes lower than the water concentration inside of the

cell. How would the cell most likely respond to maintain homeostasis?

Since the water concentration (also the water potential) is lower than the cell inside, the water will most likely flow from the cell out to the outside. This is because of osmosis, where the rule is water molecules will flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential, through a semi permeable membrane (cell membrane).

When the cell looses water, depending its whether a animal or plant cell, if it's an animal cell, it'll shrink. If it's an plant cell, since there is the presence of the cell wall, the cell membrane will detach from the cell wall, and this phenomenon is called plasmolysis.

Which is a phenomenon that can result from directional selection? a. There is an increase in the number of different breeds of d
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

B) There is an increase in the number of giraffes with long necks in areas of Africa where low-growing trees have died

Explanation:

The directional selection is one of the ways of the natural selection in which the natural selection selects or favours the most extreme trait of the species and the extreme trait show higher fitness than the normal or average trait.

In the given question, the case of Giraffe necks shows directional selection as the normal length of the neck is not favoured by the environment but the extreme trait that is long neck is favoured by the environment and the selection shifted to that level.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Organization is one of the characteristics of life. Explain how your observations under the magnifying glass support this idea.
seraphim [82]

Answer:

All living things are made up of cells. Cells are building blocks of life. Cells are the simplest level of organization. The structure of multicellular organisms are made up of many parts that are required for survival of organisms. The level of organization in multicellular organisms includes: cells, tissues, organs and organ system. The organization is necessary for the body of the organisms to function properly as a characteristic feature of living being.

Magnifying glass is a convex lens that is fitted in a microscope can be used to magnify the image of object under observation. A magnifying glass in a microscope can be used to magnify minute cells and small living creatures. All cells aggregate to form tissues. It can be used to see the arrangement of cells in a tissue specimen and small organelles like chloroplast, mitochondria, nucleus and others.

Therefore, observations under the magnifying glass support  the idea of organization is one of the characteristics of life.
