Answer:

Water will move out of the fish

Explanation:

Osmosis is the process of the solvent moving from a less concentrated solution to a high concentrated one.

Here, ocean water has 3.5 % salt and marine fish has 1% salt in its body which means that ocean water has higher concentration of salt. Hence, water will follow the concentration gradient and move out of the fish.

Plasma proteins account at least 8% of the plasma, they contribute to osmotic pressure and maintain water balance in blood and tissues, other functions includes transport and enzymatic activities. Plasma proteins include albumin, fibrinogen and globulin (alpha, beta and gamma). Globulin proteins may be used to fight infections such that gamma globulin antibodies are released by the plasma during immune response.

The ovarian cycle describes the monthly events of a post-pubescent ovary that causes a small number of primary follicles to grow
Damm [24]

Answer:

The ovarian cycle regulates endocrine tissue preparation, and egg release in female body.  

The first half of the ovarian cycle as the follicular process. Slowly growing rates of FSH and LH are causing follicle development on the ovary surface. This cycle makes the egg primed for ovulation. As the follicles develop they start releasing estrogens and low progesterone levels. Progesterone locks the endometrium in order to help ensure pregnancy. It takes about seven days to travel ovum through the Fallopian tube and to get implanted in uterus. There are 30-60 cells at this point of evolution, called the morula. If there is no pregnancy implantation the lining would be sloughed off. estrogen levels increase after around 5 days, and the menstrual cycle enters the proliferative process. The endometrium starts to regrow, replacing the weakening blood vessels and glands at the end of the last cycle.

KIM [24]

Answer: The video shows the plant reacting to external stimuli. Humans also react to many types of external stimuli. If someone touches us when we’re not expecting it, we jump. If we put a hand on something hot, we snatch it away. When it’s cold outside, our bodies shiver and our skin turns cold. When we walk into the sunlight after being in the shade, we tend to close our eyes or squint.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The original water sample contains 830,000 cells per milliliter.

Explanation:

A sample of well water is tested for its bacterial content in a plate count assay. A one-milliliter sample of the water is diluted in a 1:10 dilution series. One milliliter of the fourth dilution tube is plated in a pour plate. After incubation, the plate has 83 colonies, indicating that the original water sample contained 830,000 cells per milliliter.
