Recall what you know about hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic solutions. When an environment is hypotonic, what happens to the cell?(1 point)
Responses
The environment has more solute, so solvent moves from inside the cell to outside, causing the cell to shrink.

Which of the following best describes the function of the ribosomes in eukaryotic cells?(1 point)
Responses
decodes the sequence of bases on the mRNA and then creates specific proteins
decodes the sequence of bases on the mRNA and then creates specific proteins
makes lipids and steroids that will be used in the production of membranes and hormones
makes lipids and steroids that will be used in the production of membranes and hormones
modifies proteins that require specific attachments of sugars or lipids and packages proteins for export
modifies proteins that require specific attachments of sugars or lipids and packages proteins for export
energy-producing structure of the cell and location of cellular respiration
energy-producing structure of the cell and location of cellular respiration
The correct response is: decodes the sequence of bases on the mRNA and then creates specific proteins. The function of ribosomes in eukaryotic cells is protein synthesis.
