MDCAT Biology MCQs

Dehydration reactions join monomers into larger molecules.
A water molecule is released during bond formation.

Water moves out toward the higher solute concentration.
The cell undergoes crenation.

Water enters the cell and the vacuole expands.
The cell wall prevents bursting and creates turgor pressure.
