13) A freshwater plant is placed in a container of distilled water. What will most likely happen to the cells of the plant?
A
They will shrink because water will move out of them.
B
They will swell because salt will move into them.

Aerobic respiration results in more energy
C
Each process results in variable amounts of energy
D
Each process results in equal amounts of energy
20) Eukaryotic cells are differentiated from prokaryotic cells because eukaryotic cells
A
