The passage states that organisms that live in fresh water cannot survive in salt water. These organisms will undergo a process termed plasmolysis. An organism experiencing plasmolysis would resemble the egg subjected to which variable of the experiment? A) egg in vinegar B) egg in tap water C) egg in salt water D) egg in Kayro syrup

Respuesta :

c is not the correct answer ... the right answer is d.egg in Kayro syrup

Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be D) egg in Kayro syrup.

Plasmolysis refers to the process by which a cell looses its water content when placed in a hypertonic solution.

A hypertonic solution is a solution which has higher concentration of solutes as compared to the concentration of solute present in the cell.

In this case, kayro syrup and salt water would act as hypertonic solution however, kayro syrup usually contains more solute concentration than the salt water.

So, the plasmolysis in egg would be the most prominent when it is palced in karyo syrup.
