When the concentration of electrolytes in tissue fluid is too high, intracellular water moves into the extracellular fluid compartment.

OSMOSIS:

  • Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane.

  • Osmotic principle is based on concentration gradient i.e. difference in concentration across a membrane.

  • Electrolytes represent solute such as salts, ions, sugar etc. Therefore, when the concentration of electrolytes in tissue fluid is too high, intracellular water moves into the extracellular fluid compartment.

Luda [366]

Answer:

It is an example of parasitism

Explanation:

It is parasitism because parasitism is a symbiotic relationship that take place between two species in which one organism benefit while other suffer loss or die. The one that benefits make the other suffer loss or kill the other. The one that benefits is the parasite and the one that suffer loss is the prey.

From the question, mistletoe exhibit parasitism with other plants because it grows on them and take their nutrients and water from them making them to suffer loss of nutrients and water and some may eventually die.

Punnett squares provide an easy way to predict the possible genotypes for an offspring, but it is not practical to perform a Pun
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

There are certain limitations associated with the Punnett Squares. They are not useful in case of complex genetic inheritance such as linkage between two genes. In case of linkages it becomes difficult to estimate the distribution of genotypes and phenotypes. For example in case of  Nail-patella Syndrome and gene associated with blood group two genes lie on the same chromosome in close vicinity and hence there are high chances of inheritance of these traits in the offspring from the parent thereby causing  random distribution of the two traits. This random distribution cannot be captured through punnet square.  

The same problem is associated in case where a single gene is determined by multiple genes with graded effects of each gene.

What are three of the human body's defensive barriers and how do they keep the human body healthy
Lera25 [3.4K]
Natural barriers include the skin, mucous membranes, tears, earwax, mucus, and stomach acid. Also, the normal flow of urine washes out microorganisms that enter the urinary tract. The immune system uses white blood cells and antibodies to identify and eliminate organisms that get through the body's natural barriers.
