Explanation:
A scientist grew an Elodea plant in a freshwater aquarium. She removed a leaf from the plant and placed the leaf in a hypertonic solution containing 8% salt in order to observe what happened to the cells within the leaf. When she looked at the cells under a microscope, she noticed that the cells in the leaf shrunk. Which statement best explains what caused the cells to shrink?
The hypertonic solution caused the water in the cell to move from the cytoplasm into the nucleus.
The salt moved from the hypertonic solution into the cell and chemically bonded with the water.
The salt within the cell moved through the cell membrane into the solution with the higher salt concentration.
The water within the cell moved through the cell membrane into the solution with the lower water concentration.
Answer:
The water within the cell moved through the cell membrane into the solution with the lower water concentration.
Explanation:
According to this question, a scientist removed the leaf of a plant originally grown in a freshwater aquarium and placed it in a hypertonic solution containing 8% salt. Firstly, A HYPERTONIC SOLUTION is that solution which contains a higher solute concentration than that of the intracellular environment.
Due to this concentration gradient i.e. difference in concentration, OSMOSIS process will be triggered. Osmosis is the movement of water from the region of low solute concentration (the leaf cells) to a high solute concentration (the salt solution) via a semi-permeable membrane (cell membrane).
Therefore, osmotic process causes water to move from the leaf cells into the salt solution via the cell membrane. hence, causing the cells of the leaf to shrink.

Predicting how the utilization of nonrenewable resources impacts the dom in the deep ocean
system?
Answer:
Non-renewable energies such as those derived from oil affect the seabed in a serious and lethal way for its fauna / flora.
When oil fields are drilled or when they have losses, they flood the seas with oil, these seas, having living organisms, will be directly affected in a lethal way by this unexploited fuel.
In addition, petroleum derivatives such as naphtha are used for water cars such as boats that pollute the water
Explanation:
Environmental awareness led to the search for an alternative as a source of energy that are renewable sources, which make a lot of competition today to polluting or non-renewable sources.
In addition, it must be considered that the pollutants have a limit, since they are exhausted, and on the other hand, an economy that solvent and supports all the expenses of the extraction of these from the depths of the seas is needed.
Answer: When coal and oil are burned, they release particles that can pollute the air, water, and land. ... Burning fossil fuels also upsets Earth's “carbon budget,” which balances the carbon in the ocean, earth, and air. When fossil fuels are combusted (heated), they release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

What groups of organisms are most in danger of extinction?
A. Those with small population
B. Those that migrate or need special habitats
C. Those with large populations that breed quickly
D. Both a and b
Explanation:
D.Both a and B
As organisms with small population and those who migrate and need special habitat are most in danger of extinction.
The group of organisms that are in danger of extinction is those that have small populations and those that migrate or need special habits. So the correct option is D.
What is the extinction of species?
In biology, extinction refers to the extinction or death of a species. Extinction happens when a species' numbers are reduced due to evolutionary changes in its members, such as genetic inbreeding, poor reproduction, and population decline, or due to environmental factors like habitat fragmentation, climate change, natural disasters, and overexploitation of the species for human use.
The majority of species that have ever existed on Earth have gone extinct, but the fossil record indicates five very significant extinctions, known as mass extinction events, each of which resulted in the extinction of enormous numbers of species. The bulk of extinctions, which happen continuously and are described as background extinctions, are separated from these glaring decreases in the variety by the term "mass extinction."
Therefore, the correct option is D.

discribe the passive transport movement of a substance down it's concentration gradient through a protein channel embedded in the cell membrane
Answer:
The passive transport of a substance by its concentration gradient through a protein channel is called facilitated diffusion.
Explanation:
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport through the membrane, which involves the use of integral proteins called protein channels or transport proteins, and moves substances unable to cross the membrane by simple diffusion.
An example of facilitated diffusion through protein channels is the ion channel. Ions, being electrically charged particles, cannot pass through the plasma membrane. A protein channel -which crosses the whole thickness of the membrane- constitutes a space where ions can move depending on their concentration gradient.
In facilitated diffusion, both protein channels and transport proteins do not require energy, so it is a transmembrane passive transport process.

What is electronegativity?The term "electronegativity" describes how attracted an atom is to the bonding electrons in molecules as opposed to other atoms.
American chemist Linus Pauling developed a set of dimensionless variables known as electronegativity values that vary from a little under one for alkali metals to a maximum of four for fluorine.
Electropositive elements are those that are on the left of the periodic table and have low electronegativities. We shall use the key attribute of the order of electronegativities F > O > N > C to explain the chemical properties of organic molecules.
Therefore, Zinc 1.65, Chromium 1.66, Tungsten 2.36 and Iodine 2.66.

Why is Earth's outer core hotter than Earth's oceanic crust? Earth's oceanic crust is denser than Earth's outer core is. Earth's oceanic crust has lava flowing from the mantle. Earth's outer core has a composition of solid iron and nickel. Earth's outer core is deeper within Earth than oceanic crust is.
Answer: Earth's outer core is deeper within Earth than oceanic crust is.
Explanation:
The Earths outer core is is known as the third layer of the Earth. It is the only layer of the earth which is liquid. and it is majorly constituting of made metals iron and nickel, as well as little constituents of other substances. The Earths outer core is responsible for magnetic field on earth. And it is hotter than the oceanic crust because it is deeper within the earth than the oceanic crust.
The core -outer core and inner core- compose the third and deepest layer of the Earth. The Earth's outer core is hotter than Earth's oceanic crust because the Earth's outer core is deeper within Earth than oceanic crust is.
-------------------
The Earth is composed of three layers known as cortex, mantle, and core.
The outer layer is the cortex, while the core is the inner layer is the core, both of them composed mainly of iron and nickel.
The core can be divided into outer core and inner core.
Near the terrestrial core, the temperature might reach up to 3,500ºC, and solid materials in these areas melt and fuse.
When fusing, materials lose density, becoming lighter and ascending again to the surface, creating the ascending currents.
Differences in temperature and density produce convection currents. Warm melted materials from the bottom are lighter and can ascend, while cold materials from the surface are denser, so they tend to descend.
Convective currents contribute to the plates' movements over the mantle and keep the surface warm, making life possible.
The heat produced in the core is responsible for the electromagnetic field.
The Earth's outer core is hotter than Earth's oceanic crust because the Earth's outer core is deeper within Earth than oceanic crust is.
