Part C - Some microbes are halophiles and can withstand a high concentration of salt in their environment. What happens to nonhalophiles under such a condition?
| Salt enters the cell. |
| Water enters the cell. |
| Salt leaves the cell. |
| Water leaves the cell. |
I believe the correct answer to be:
Option D) Water leaves the cell.
As the concentration of water is higher inside the cell than outside the cell due to which the water will move from higher concentration to lower concentration outside the cell.
feel free to leave a comment down below for any further query. good rating would be appreciated if you find my answer helpful. thank you.

(1 pt 27) The two bacteria cultured on this mannitol salt agar plate will have the same reaction. One reacted nearly 24 hours before the other. What substance in the agar was catabolized by both bacteria that produced the demonstrated colorimetric change? Image gallery (click for full size) (1pt 28) The presence of bacterial growth on this mannitol salt agar plate suggests that these bacteria can tolerate the hyperosmotic condition produced by the salt. The term used...

molecule which moves down its concentration gradient and across a pore in a cel membrane without energy being expended by the cell is experiencing When the fluid within a cell has a higher concentration of dissolved substances than the fluid surrounding the cell, we say the fluid surrounding the cell is 14. A typical bacterial cell has a salt concentration of about 1% If the cell is placed in a solution containing 10% salt,...
3. A 1000-gallon tank initially contains 800 gallons of water with 3 lbs of salt dissolved in it. A water-salt mixture with a concentration of 0.4 lb of salt per gallon enters the tank at a rate of 8 gal/hr. The liquid in the tank is well-mixed and is pumped out of the tank at a rate of 10 gal/hr. Suppose you were asked to find an expression for the amount of salt in the tank at time t. (a)...
please give me the right answer.
thanks
In many biological solutions, water is the solvent, meaning that solute molecules are dissolved in it (think of salt or sugar water). If a solute does not move across a semipermeable membrane, it is асr known an osmotically active solute. For the following examples, assume that the solute is osmotically active. In osmosis, water molecules move across the cellular membrane down the gradient (from an area of low solute/high water concentration to an...
The process of water leaving a cell through osmosis due to high concentrations of salt or other material in the surrounding solution means the cell was in what type of solution originally? A. Hypotonic B. Isotonic C. Hypertonic D. Isostatic
2. Read the following case study and answer the questions about CJD that follow. Some microbes encountered in the environment cannot be destroyed by conven- tional means. An example is the microbe that causes Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, which can be transmitted on neurosurgical instruments. Another disease that is caused not by microbes but by reprocessing methods is TASS (toxic anterior segment syndrome) which may result in blindness. a. What are prions? b. What causes CJD? c. Why is CJD a concern...

(1 point) A tank contains 50 kg of salt and 2000 L of water. A solution of a concentration 0.0125 kg of salt per liter enters a tank at the rate 7 L/min. The solution is mixed and drains from the tank at the same rate. (a) What is the concentration of our solution in the tank initially? concentration = !!! (kg/L) (b) Set up an initial value problem for the quantity y, in kg, of salt in the tank...
