B. expands and becomes more dense as it changes from solid to liquid form.

C. releases heat when it evaporates.

D. is a universal solvent.

C. Regardless of the internal pH of their cells, most living organisms can only survive within a narrow range of
environmental pH.

D. Regardless of the pH of the environment, most living organisms will not survive if the internal pH of their cells
fluctuates.

E. The internal pH of a muscle cell may become more basic during exercise.

10. The interior of a lysosome in an animal cell has a pH of 5, while the cytosol of the cell has a pH of 7.4. This indicates
that in comparison to the cytosol, the interior of the lysosome has a
