Answer:
- Water entered the potato strips because the potato cells contained higher concentration of solutes than its external environment.
- The solutions are hypotonic to the solution in the potato cells.
Explanation:
According to osmosis, water will move from a region where it is high in concentration to that region where it is low in concentration. However, a region with high solute concentration contains a low water concentration and vice versa.
Hence, according to this question, water is said to move into potato strips from solutions of molar concentrations like 0.0M, 0.2M etc. Water moved into the potato strips because potato cells contained higher concentration of solutes than its external environment. This means that the external solutions are HYPERTONIC i.e. low in solute concentration to the solution in the potato strips.
Answer: the correct answer is A) All plants should be the same age and health and be given equal amounts of water and sunlight.
Answer:
Hilum.
Explanation:
Hilum may be defined as the type of the depression or the fissure and may present in kidney known as kidney hilum, present on spleen and the lungs. This is also known as hilus.
The hilum marks the entry and exit of the nerves and the blood vessels. The lung hilum is a triangular like depression through which the blood vessels, capillaries and the nerves enter and leave in the lungs and connects the other organ of the body.
Thus, the correct answer is option (d).
Lakes that have been acidified cannot support the same variety of life as healthy lakes. As a lake becomes more acidic, crayfish and clam populations are the first to disappear, then various types of fish. Many types of plankton-minute organisms that form the basis of the lake's food chain-are also affected. As fish stocks dwindle, so do populations of loons and other water birds that feed on them. The lakes, however, do not become totally dead. Some life forms actually benefit from the increased acidity. Lake-bottom plants and mosses, for instance, thrive in acid lakes. So do blackfly larvae.
The answer is microscopic life appeared on Earth before flowering plants. This is because according to the label on the second box, microscopic life appeared 4.0 to 3.5 billion years ago, and this is way before the date 250 to 120 millions years ago indicated on the label on the sixth box the flowering plants appeared on Earth.
