What refers to a solution with more molecules outside the cell than inside the cell?
hypertonic solution
Which term refers to a cell that has more solute on the inside than on the outside?
not hypertonic solution
A solution in which the salt concentration inside the cell is higher than outside the cell is known as?
hypertonic :D
How is hypotonic and hypertonic differ?
If we take a example of cell then if the solution outside the cell containing less solutes as compare to inside of cell then that solution is hypotonic and if the solution outside the cell contain more solute concentration then it is hypertonic solution
How is a hypertonic solution different from a hypotonic solution?
Hypotonic solution has much less particles dissolved inside the solvent than there is in the cell floating in the mixture. A hypertonic solution has a greater concentration of particles dissolved in the solvent than inside the cell.
What refers to a solution with more molecules outside the cell than inside the cell?
hypertonic solution
What is it called when the concentration of solutes is greater outside the cell the inside?
A hypertonic environment with regard to the cell.
Which term refers to a cell that has more solute on the inside than on the outside?
not hypertonic solution
What does a hypertonic solution have?
A hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration than the cell the solution is in. (So the cell will shrink when it is in a hypertonic solution, because water will leave the cell in an attempt to balance the ratios of solute to water both inside and outside of the cell.)
Is a solution outside of a cell contains a greater concentration of dissolved particles than the contents of the cell the solution is said to be what?
Hypo-osmotic, it depends on the osmolality, if the osmolality is higher inside the cell its called hypotonic.
A solution in which the salt concentration inside the cell is higher than outside the cell is known as?
hypertonic :D
When a solution is hypertonic?
Let us put hypotonic into the mix. Hyper is more, hypo is less so that puts -tonic right in the middle, as a reference point. That reference point is also called equilibrium. When a solution contains more solute that it would normally contain at equilibrium it is hypertonic, and when a solution has dissolved in it less than the amount of solute that it would normally contain at equilibrium it is hypotonic.
Lower concentration of solutes outside the cell than inside the cell?
surgar will move into the cell
What happends to a cell when placed in a hypertonic solution?
When a cell is put in a hypertonic solution, it shrinks and shrivels. You alwasy have t say: This solution is hypertonic to ...A hypertonic solution means that there is more matter in the solution than in the object it is compared to. The cell will shrink and shrivel because the water will leave the cell to try to dissolve the matter outside of it.
How is hypotonic and hypertonic differ?
If we take a example of cell then if the solution outside the cell containing less solutes as compare to inside of cell then that solution is hypotonic and if the solution outside the cell contain more solute concentration then it is hypertonic solution
What will happen if a blood cell is placed in a hypertonic salt solution?
A hypertonic solution is a solution that has a high concentration of solute, in this case the solute being salt. When a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, since the salt concentration is higher in the outside of the cell, the water concentration is lower there as well. Therefore, through the process of osmosis, the water diffuses from the inside of the cell to the outside of the cell.
What concentration of solutes is equal the concentration of solutes inside the cell?
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
