Answer: actively pump water back into their cells to counter its loss due to osmosis.
Explanation:
The salt lake is the hypertonic solution that means it exhibit the high concentration of salt as compared to what is present in the cells of the organisms. Thus the cells of animals or plants in the hypertonic solution shrinks as they will loose water. The water moves from the higher concentration to the lower concentration.
The brine shrimp cells will shrink in the hypertonic solution of the salt water. Thus the shrimp will actively take or pump water inside the cell to counter balance the loss of water caused due to osmosis.
Explanation:
The movement of water takes place from higher concentration to lower concentrations via semipermeable membrane is known as osmosis.
The water from the external environment is moved inside the cell. This is important because due to salinity the water is moved out of the cell and it is important to maintain an optimum amount of water inside the cell.
The water is pumped actively inside the body because the lake has lots of salt in it. Due to loss of water there must be some system that helps in moving water against the concentration gradient.
