Question
injecting an hypertonic saline solution into a humans veins blood cells to swell and burst shrink carry more oxygen aggregate question 45 (1 point) engulfing bacteria could be described as an example of exocytosis phagocytosis pinocytosis osmosis
Brief Explanations
- For the first question, in an hypertonic solution, there is a higher solute - concentration outside the blood cells compared to inside. Water will move out of the cells by osmosis, causing the cells to shrink.
- For the second question, phagocytosis is the process by which cells engulf large particles like bacteria. Exocytosis is the process of expelling substances from the cell, pinocytosis is the uptake of liquid and small particles, and osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi - permeable membrane.
