Answer:
The correct answer is c. water to move out of the strawberry, making it smaller
Explanation:
Osmosis is the process refers to the movement of liquid molecule from the area of high solute concentration to an area of low solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane to equalize the osmotic balance.
Osmosis is important for any cell to maintain a proper osmotic balance of the cell. So if sugar is sprinkled on a strawberry the solute concentration outside the strawberry cells will increase which will result in water release from the cell.
This release of water from the cell will shrink the strawberry and make it small. Therefore the correct answer is c.

Explanation:
It’s what he says in the video
Answer:
The seafloor is only 180 million years old due to the process of subduction. The floor of the sea's tends to get colder and denser with the passage of time. At a certain time, the seafloor becomes so dense that it sinks in the upper mantle. The Earth's crust cannot undergo this process and hence has oldest rocks. We can say that the seafloor is less than 180 million years old because it is typically recycled back into the mantle of the Earth.
<u>Phenylketonuria</u>
Explanation:
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a type of a rare inherited metabolic disorder.
Etiology: PKU results from excessive accumulation of the amino acid phenylalanine in the body. Normally, phenylalanine will be converted to tyrosine (forms neurotransmitters) by the action of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase.
Among people with PKU, a defect in the PAH gene which codes to synthesize this enzyme occurs which leads to the absence of this enzyme. So the phenylalanine which is normally present in dietary protein is not metabolized and gets accumulated. This gene is inherited by the child only if both the parents are with the defective PAH gene.
Symptoms: Stunted growth, behaviroral disturbances, learning difficulties, seizures, tremors etc.
Treatment: Basic treatment is to follow a diet which limits dietary sources of phenylalanine. High protein foods like meat, egg should be avoided. Children can be given PKU formula to supplement their nutritional needs.
