Answer: 11. 10% is the concentration of solutes, 12. Osmosis is the net movement of solvent through a membrane according to the concentration of the solution.
Explanation:
Osmosis is a phenomenon that explains the movement of a solvent through a semi-permeable membrane without expenditure of energy, where the movement is through simple diffusion.
The tonicity is the total concentration of all solutes in the solution. Then, when a solution has a few particles, it has a low osmolarity, while a solution with many particles has a hight osmolarity. But, when there are two solutions separated by a permeable membrane to water (and not to the solutes or particles) the solvent (water) will move from the lower osmolarity side to the higher osmolarity side (which means, water moves from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration)
To compare osmolarity of solutions, we use the terms hypertonic, hypotonic and isotonic. This is done, for example, to compar the osmolarity of a cell with the osmolarity of the extracellular fluid around it. If the extracellular fluid has a lower concentration than the fluid inside the cell, it is hypotonic with respect to the cell. In this case, the solvent will go into the cell. If the extracellular fluid has a higher concentration than the fluid inside the cell, it is hypertonic and the solvent will leave the cell from the region of lower solute concentration to the region with more solutes. At last, an isotonic solution is when the extracellular fluid and the cell has the same osmolarity and there will be no net movement of water in or out of the cell.
Increasing on mass would mean that there has been a net movement of water into the bag, because the solution was hypotonic. A decreased on mass mean that there has been a net movement of water out of the bad, because the solution was hypertonic. And if there has been no change or a very little mass change, it means the solution was isotonic, the same osmolarity or concentration of solutes was found inside and outside the cell.
Taking into account the concepts of tonicity and osmolarity, we can explain the process of dialysis which is the process of separating molecules across a semi-permeable membrane in a solution by the difference in their osmotic pressure. It is a laboratory technique where a solution that has many types of different solutes, is put into a semi-permeable sealed dialysis bag, (such as a porous cellulose membrane). Then it is placed in a container with a different solution, or pure water (which has a lower osmolarity). Molecules such as DNA or proteins are larger than the diameter of the pore thereby they are retained within the dialysis bag. However, molecules that are small enough to pass through the pores, such as water, tend to move in or out of the dialysis bag in the direction of the lowest concentration. It is usually used to remove salt from a protein solution. Then, if a dyalisis tube is labeled as 10%, it means its solute concentration is 10% of to the total volume of the dialysis bag.

Jacob a 40 year old man who is 6 foot tall and weighs 225 pounds has been diagnosed with atherosclerosis. What healthcare plan would you design for this patient? prescribe a medication to reduce bad cholesterol and no other changes need to be made. patient is just slightly overweight and she is worrying to much about his health, therefore no change. patient should make lifestyle changes to healthier foods and start an exercise plan to reduce his weight by 30 pounds prescribe a medication that lowers blood pressure and no other changes need to be made.
Answer:
The patient should make lifestyle changes to healthier foods and start an exercise plan to reduce his weight by 30 pounds.
Explanation:
We know that the patient weighs 225 pounds, and his height is 6 feet. With this information, we can determine his Body Mass Index (BMI) using the formula:
BMI= weight/(height)²
BMI= 225/(6)²
BMI= 30.5
Once that we calculated his BMI, we compare the result with the reference chart, here we can see that for his height. he is obese. This coincides with the fact that he has been diagnosed with atherosclerosis. His body has been placing the extra fat in the arteries.
The best plan for Jabob would be to make a lifestyle change to healthier foods and an exercise plan that helps him to lose weight so that his BMI would be approximately 25 and his weight of 195 pounds. Also, this plan will reduce cholesterol levels.
Slowing signals between neurons is a function of __________. A. excitatory receptors B. excitatory neurotransmitters C. inhibitory receptors D. inhibitory neurotransmitters
Answer:
D
inhibitory neurotransmitters
Explanation:
Slowing signals between neurons is a function of inhibitory neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are the chemical messengers. Thus, the correct option is D.
What are inhibitory transmitters?Neurotransmitters are the chemical messengers in the body. These are released by the axon terminals of neuron and transmit the nerve impulse (message) to the neighboring cell (a muscle cell or a nerve cell).
There are primarily two types of neurotransmitters in the body, which are:
1. Excitatory neurotransmitter and 2. Inhibitory neurotransmitter
Inhibitory neurotransmitter have inhibitory effect on the neuron, they reduce the chances that a neuron will fire an action potential. They are responsible for slowing signals between neurons. Example: GABA (gamma amino butyric acid) is a common inhibitory neurotransmitter.
Therefore, the correct option is D.

How are precipitation and temperature different between the polar and tropical climate zones?
Answer:
The temperature is colder in the polar climate zones. Also, there is less precipitation in polar climate zones. Meanwhile,the temperature is warmer in the tropical climate zones. Also, there is more precipitation in tropical climate zones.
Explanation:
The earth is extremely diverse in its ecosystem. Different regions are called climate biomes to understand patterns of meteorology, biology, and natural phenomena.
The biggest difference between tropical and polar climates is the difference in temperature. The tropical climate is close to the equator and has more sun all year round than anywhere else on the planet, but the polar climate is the furthest from the equator and has the least sunlight and heat of any part of the world. This makes winters harsher and summers shorter in polar climates, but hotter virtually every day in tropical climates. Both climates are reminiscent of precipitation (such as tropical rains and polar snow), but both can be quite dry. Antarctica is said to be the largest desert in the world because there is little snow falling towards the center of the continent.
What are examples of tropical desserts?Tropical deserts, such as the Namib Desert in Africa, are so hot and dry that it is difficult to survive.
Thus it concludes that precipitation and temperature are different between the polar and tropical climate zones.

[50 points... Will give brainliest] Explain how natural selection is impacted by genetic differences, variation, and survival.
Answer:
Because natural selection acts directly only on phenotypes, more genetic variation within a population usually enables more phenotypic variation. Some new alleles increase an organism's ability to survive and reproduce, which then ensures the survival of the allele in the population.
Natural selection is the process through which populations of living organisms adapt and change. Individuals in a population are naturally variable, meaning that they are all different in some ways. This variation means that some individuals have traits better suited to the environment than others.
Natural selection is a mechanism of evolution. Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success. This process causes species to change and diverge over time.

How is energy released from a molecule of ATP?
Help!!
Explanation:
ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate. It is the compound by which energy is stored and transferred in a cell.
It is made up of a nitrogenous base, the sugar and three phosphate groups.
The compound is produce as a product of photosynthesis and use to store energy.Energy is produced from this compound in the following steps,
a cell in need of energy spends the ATP currencyfrom the three phosphorous groups attached to the tail, one is split of.ATP then becomes ADP, Adenosine Di- phosphateit is the energy holding the phosphate group that is released and is used by the body.1. Other than having many features in common, state other characteristics of species 2. Give reasons for the loss of energy from one trophic level to the next in a food chain.
Answer:
As a metabolic heat.
Explanation:
The loss of energy from one trophic level to the next in a food chain occurs because energy is lost in the form of heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level. Only 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to another while the remaining 90% energy is lost in the form of heat energy in the ecosystem.

Choose the term that best matches the description given. Treatments that destroy or decrease the growth of a microbe infection in a patient ______ a. Disinfects b. Antiseptics c. Sterilization d. Antimicrobials e. Quarantine
Answer: The correct option is D (Antimicrobials).
Explanation:
Antimicrobial treatment is defined as therapies that are given to patients to either inhibit or kill the growth of microorganisms IN their body cells. The antimicrobial treatment can be grouped into two based on their mechanism of action. These includes:
--> Microbiocidal therapy: This type of treatment when given, kills the microorganisms in the cells of the patient.
--> Microbiostatic therapy: This type of treatment aims at inhibiting the growth of microorganisms when administered to a patient.
The antimicrobial drugs achieve their role usually through their different modes of action which includes:
--> cell wall inhibition
--> inhibition of cell membrane function
--> protein and nucleic acid synthesis inhibition.
Disinfects, antiseptic and sterilisation are all different ways of eliminating microorganisms but not used as invitro (within) treatment for patients. Therefore the term that best matches the description given is antimicrobials.
A particularly long radio wave has a wavelength of 1.5 x 10^9 meters. What is the frequency of this radio wave?
Answer:
0.2Hz
Explanation:
The wavelength of a radiowave can be calculated this;
λ = v/f
Where;
λ = Wavelength (m)
v = speed (m/s)
f = frequency (Hz)
Based on the information provided in this question, λ = 1.5 x 10^9 meters, c = 3 × 10^8m/s, f = ?
Hence, using λ = v/f
f = v/λ
f = 3 × 10^8 ÷ 1.5 x 10^9
f = 2 × 10^(8-9)
f = 2 × 10^-1
f = 0.2Hz

A man who has cystic fibrosis married a healthy women. They produce 2 children who both have cystic fiber. What are the genotypes of the man and women? (use symbols to represent the alleles and which parent is which)
Answer:
The correct answer would be -
Father - both alleles are recessive for the gene - cc
Mother - carrier with the heterozygous condition - Cc
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis is a recessive genetic disease that means it exhibits only if both copies of the gene mutated, If there is only one copy of the gene is mutated the person will be healthy however, he or she will be a carrier of the mutated gene.
Given: Father has cystic fibrosis which means he has two copies of the mutated gene - cc (c - recessive)
Female - she is healthy now there is two conditions possible
1. if the mother is healthy - CC (normal allele)
C C
c Cc Cc
c Cc Cc
All offspring are in the heterozygous condition that means they are healthy carriers which is not given in the question so women must be a carrier
2. Carrier mother - Cc
C c
c Cc cc
c Cc cc
Here 50% chances of having children with CF so it is possible as two offsprings have CF according to question
Thus, Father - both alleles are recessive for the gene - cc
Mother - carrier with the heterozygous condition - Cc
