the cells were kept in a dilute solution. they were then transferred to distilled water. explain what will happen to each of these two cells when they are placed into distilled water.

When you place the animal cell in distilled water, because distilled water is a hypotonic solution(has a lower concentration than the cytoplasm). Water will diffuse inside the cell through osmosis. This will cause the cell to swell and eventually burst.

When you place the plant cell in the distilled water. The water will diffuse inside the cell, the water will build up inside the vacuole and turgor pressure will appear. The cell won't be able to burst because the cell wall prevents it.

tsd is temerature dependent sex determination.

tsd: it is a type of environmental sex determination in which the temperature experienced during embryonic/ larval development (ambient temperature for development) determine the sex of the offspring.

crocodile displays the tsd where the ambient temperature of the developing egg determines the individual's sex. for example in the american alligator's eggs, incubation at 33 ºc produces mostly males, while incubation at 30 ºc produces mostly females. so if the american alligator's egg will get the ambient temperature (33 degree celcius)during embryonic development from egg, the offspring will be male and same for the female sex determination.
