If the osmotic pressure of the blood were increased above normal levels, it means that

Hemolysis would occur

Explanation:

If the osmotic pressure of the blood rises too much (normal values are approximately 7.7 atm), it becomes hypertonic (when the red blood cells become turgid) in relation to other compounds, facilitating the passage of other fluids.

For example, if the blood is hypertonic in relation to a certain serum, the water contained in it would start to enter the red blood cells and they would eventually swell, and could burst. This process is known as hemolysis.

answer: a) a compound microscope has a greater magnification ability than a simple microscope.

explanation:

many other transport proteins, often called pumps, move materials against a concentration gradient. active transport drives molecules across a membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration. this process, shown in figure 5.1, uses transport proteins powered by chemi- cal energy.
