An animal cell that is placed in a hypotonic solution will rapidly gain water, because osmosis would cause the water to move to an area with more solutes. In this case, that is the inside of the cell. A cell in a hypotonic solution may gain enough water to lyse, or rupture, the cell membrane, which destroys the cell.
it is an organ. the main organ in the body. I wish your question was a little more clear, like multiple choice would be very helpful to what my choices are.
arbon, as with many elements, can arrange its atoms into several different geometries, or "allotropes." In pure diamond, every carbon atom is covalently bonded to exactly 4 other carbon atoms in a very specific and energetically favorable geometry. The diamond cannot be broken or scratched unless many covalent bonds are broken, which is difficult to do. In another common allotrope, graphite, every carbon atom is covalently bonded to only 3 other carbon atoms, and the atoms are arranged in sheets that are not covalently bonded to each other. The sheets can be broken apart easily, ultimately meaning that graphite can be easily scratched. Coal is composed of particles of different allotropes of carbon, and some "amorphous carbon," which has no defined geometry in its atomic structure. Without a continuous network of covalent bonds, coal is easily scratched (i.e. it is not hard).
Smith is pursuing an ekg technician certification program. He will be one of the healthcare professionals referred to as cardiovascular technologists and technicians. They help monitor heart health on a broader level.
