Answer:

Compared to its surroundings, the concentration of solutes is low Inside a cell. So, the cell is in a HYPOTONIC solution. A particular solute in this cell uses energy for Its transport from the cell to its surroundings.

This type of transport is called ACTIVE TRANSPORT

Explanation:

The cell is hypotonic in comparison to the surrounding environment because it has a higher water potential (less solute) than the surrounding environment; because the surrounding environment has a lower water potential (more solute), the cell loses water over time and shrinks.

The cell must employ energy in the form of ATP to transport substances within against a concentration gradient. ACTIVE TRANSPORT is the mode of transport.

Answer:The correct answer for the fill in the blanks are 1) Hypotonic 2) Active transport.

A cell is considered to be hypotonic with respect to its surroundings if it possesses low concentration of solute inside as compared to its surrounding. In other words, if a cell has higher solvent ( water) concentration inside as compared to outside, then it is called hypotonic.

As the concentration of solute is low inside the cell, the cell would require energy for the transport of a particular solute from inside to outside the cell ( against the concentration). This is a type of active transport

Compare 2 shapes. Which would be more efficient if nutrients were being exchanged through them?

Veronika [31]

Answer:

This is a question of the ration surface-volume. It is more efficient a shape that has more surface than volume

Explanation:

Imagine the shape of a mouse and an elephant in a cold environment. Who will lose heat faster? The answer is the mouse, for its volume (which is small compared to the elephant), the surface for which it can lose heat is very large. In contrast, the surface for which the elephant can lose heat is very small for its volume.

The same happens with nutrients if you have a great volume and a small surface is more difficult to exchange them.

Answer:

Cells from the cheek are a type of epithelial cell, similar to skin. ... They can be seen faintly even at 40x (scanning power), but the most dramatic images are at 400x where the nucleus is clearly visible as a dark spot in the center of the cell.
