A hypertonic environment with regard to the cell.
A hypertonic environment with regard to the cell.
If the solution is hypotonic, the concentration of solutes is greater inside. If the solution is hypertonic, the concentration of solutes is greater outside.
Hypertonic Solution
Hypotonic
when a concentration of something, usually water, is the same inside and outside a cell, it is called an isotonic solution. When there is more inside the cell or membrane, but less outside, the solution is hypotonic. when there is more on the outside , it is known as hypertonic. however, it depends what you are describing
Osmosis. A solution with a low concentration of solutes would have a higher concentration of water than a solution with a high concentration of solutes. So in this case, water is moving from a higher concentration of water to a lower concentration of water, which is osmosis.
That process is called osmosis.
It is called an isotonic solution. If the salt concentration is higher, it is called hypertonic and if lower it is called hypotonic.
The one that is lower is called hypotonic. But these are all comparisons between two things. There is another solution involved called isotonic. This one is equal to the one that you are comparing it with. Hypotonic means below and hypertonic means above some thing that you are comparing them with.

As used in the process of diffusion, the concentration gradient is the graduated difference in concentration of a solute within a solution (as expressed per a unit distance). Molecules tend to move from areas of greater concentration to areas of lesser concentration. i.e. down the gradient.
The one that is lower is called hypotonic. But these are all comparisons between two things. There is another solution involved called isotonic. This one is equal to the one that you are comparing it with. Hypotonic means below and hypertonic means above some thing that you are comparing them with.
