Answer:

is hypertonic to the protozoan.

Explanation:

The presence of contractile vacuoles tells us that the environment  is hypertonic to the protozoan that contains a higher concentration of solutes in the outside environment than the protozoan. The water moves outside the cell if its concentration is higher inside the cell so due to diffusion and no need of extra water, the water removes by the contractile vacuole to the outside environment so we can say that the environment is is hypertonic to the protozoan.

How is the message from the brain sent in response to the stimuli?
ivolga24 [154]
When a stimulus is being detected, this stimulus is being sent to the brain through the sensory neuron, going to the spinal cord then to the brain. The brain then interprets these stimuli, and responds to it using the motor neurons. These are the neurons that are responsible in our actions depending on the stimuli we are exposed to. Hope this helps.

Describe the impact of a waterborne pollutant on an aquatic community. write a 100-word report on how that pollutant affected aq
Rufina [12.5K]
A waterborne pollutant can have different effects on aquatic life depending on the nature of the pollutant. A pollutant at lower levels can have minimal or no effect on aquatic life. However, when the concentrations of the pollutant are high, the population of aquatic organisms can be greatly reduced. There are also times when pollutants at lower concentrations cause significant damage. An organism can consume another organism that has absorbed small amounts of the pollutant. As the consumer takes in more of the contaminated organism, the pollutant is magnified in the body of the consumer resulting in lethal concentrations. This is called biomagnification.
