Question 2
A group of students are conducting an experiment. Since potatoes contain both sugar and water, the students use them in the experiment. The students cut six equal cubes of potato and weigh them. They place the six cubes into six different beakers containing different concentrations of sugar solutions, then weigh each potato cube after 24 hours and calculate the percent change in mass. The graph below shows the result of their experiment.
Which of the statements below is a valid conclusion about this experiment?
a
The higher the concentration of sugar, the more likely the potato will gain mass.
b
The higher the concentration of sugar, the more likely the water concentration will be at equilibrium.
c
The lower the concentration of sugar, the less likely the potato will gain mass.

Here are the answers to your questions:
### Question 1
The answer is **a**: Some CO2 will leave the cell.
In an isotonic solution, the movement of water is balanced, but gases like CO2 can diffuse out of the cell without the use of energy.
### Question 2
The answer is **d**: The lower the concentration of sugar, the more likely the potato will gain mass.
In lower concentrations of sugar, water moves into the potato cubes by osmosis, causing an increase in mass.
### Question 3
The answer is **b**: The white blood cells are using active transport, and therefore are using energy.
Phagocytosis is an active process that requires energy to engulf bacteria.
### Question 4
The answer is **c**: As humans age, they become more susceptible to disease and cancer.
This statement describes a consequence of aging rather than a homeostatic mechanism.

The answer is **d**: virus.
Both herpes simplex and HIV are types of viruses.
