Why would a plant cell not burst while an animal cell would undergo cytolysis in a hypotonic solution? The plant cell has a large central vacuole and creates a stronger exterior.

The plant cell has a rigid cell wall and the pressure from the central vacuoles causes the stiffness of the plant and animal cells do not have a cell wall therefore the boundary of the cell is weaker.

The plant cell is stronger because it has the chloroplast and causes a strong boundary that support the cell due to the glucose that is made from the process of photosynthesis.

On a backpacking trip, kenny hikes all day at a steady pace, covering 30 kilometers and burning 4000 calories. at the school track, janelle runs the 100-meter sprint in 13.5 seconds, burning 10 calories. afterward, janelle’s leg muscles are aching and she is breathing hard, while kenny maintains normal breathing all day, even though he burns 400 times more calories than janelle. which two statements offer the best explanation for this phenomenon? a. if the aerobic pathway—cellular respiration—cannot meet the energy demand, then the anaerobic pathway—lactic acid fermentation—starts up, resulting in lactic acid buildup and "oxygen debt." b. aerobic cellular respiration produces more energy, but its use is limited because of lactic acid buildup in the muscles and the resulting "oxygen debt." c. after about 90 seconds of intense exercise, the muscles become depleted of oxygen, and anaerobic respiration can no longer function to produce atp, resulting in "oxygen debt." d. the rate of energy demand determines how the muscles will obtain energy, either from cellular respiration or from lactic acid fermentation if not enough oxygen is present.
