Environmental health and hazards

An organism's environment is the environment in which it lives and has an impact on its well-being. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines environmental health as "those aspects of public health, such as quality of life, that are influenced by physical, chemical, biological, social, and psychosocial components in the environment." Environmental health is concerned with both natural and man-made settings in order to enhance public health. Environmental science, occupational medicine, toxicology, and epidemiology are the key subdisciplines of environmental health.

Which figure depicts an animal cell placed in a solution hypotonic to the cell?
A) cell A
B) cell B
O C) cell C
D) cell D
E) cell E

Expert Solution

Step 1

Hypotonic solution: A solution with less dissolved particles (salt and other ions) than ordinary cells. So, the water content in hypotonic solution is higher than the cell.
