The correct answer is C. She added water that was hypotonic to the culture of organisms, and they ruptured.
Explanation:
In biology, a hypotonic solution is a substance with less concentration than the inner concentration in cells, this is the opposite of a hypertonic solution that has a higher concentration. Additionally, if cells are in hypotonic solution water or liquid will begin to get into them and this would make cells burst and finally explode and die due to the pressure in them.
This occurred in the case presented as it is likely the organisms collected from the ocean had a high concentration and therefore hen they were exposed to clean water in which concentration was lower, water entered into the cells and made them explode, which explains the only remains of them were bit and pieces.
Mitochondria are the energy centers of the eukaryotic cells. In these organelles, ATP (the energy coin of the cell) is produced by the oxidation of pyruvate (Krebs cycle) and oxidative phosphorylation.
- Based on this information, malfunction in MITOCHONDRIA is most likely responsible for Leigh's disease.
- Cellular respiration is series of metabolic reactions by which eukaryotic cells produce energy in the form of ATP from foods and oxygen.
- Cellular respiration has three main stages: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation.
- Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm, whereas the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation occur in the mitochondria.
