In osmosis, the hypertonic solution is one with a higher solute concentration over the semi-permeable membrane and the hypotonic solution is one with a lower solute concentration over the semi-permeable membrane. The similarities between these two is that both contain a solute and both involve water which is essential in osmosis. Also, the semi-permeable membrane plays a very important roll on how the water moves. It moves from the lower solute concentration to the higher solute concentration.
What else can I help you with?
A cell is dropped into a solution and the cell swells the solution is?
hypertonic hypertonic
WHAT ARE THE CLASSIFICATION OF SOLUTIONS?
hypotonic solution,isontonic solution and the hypertonic solution
What is the difference between a hypertonic needle and a hypotonic needle?
A hypotonic needle is a needle that is a non coring needle. A hypertonic needle is a coring needle. Both of these needles are used in IV's with a hypotonic needle used for hypotonic solutions.
Which of the 3 intravenous solutions isotonic hypotonic hypertonic has more electrolytes andor glucose content - please differentiate the three solutions based on the mentioned content?
Hypertonic solutions have more electrolytes....HYPER meaning greater/more/excessive. Hypotonic have the least electrolyes. Isotonic have the similar electroly (osmolality) as blood. Meaning if you give isotonic solutions, the fluid will saty in the vessels and not move fluids around. Hypertonic solutions will move water from the cells into the vessels (extracellualr) and hypotonic solution will move water from fluid from the vessels into the cells. Glucose is usually an iso or hypertonic solution, but there are different % of glucose in every solution. D5W is an isotonic solution.
Di fferent types of solution?
Different types of solutions are the hypertonic, hypotonic and isotonic.
Is gram positive hypertonic or hypotonic?
Neither. The structure of the gram negative cell wall protects the cell from hypotonic solutions. Is this what you were asking?
How hypotonic and hypertonic solution can make a plant rigid and firm or make it wilt.?
it can make it wilt because there is no water in the cell which is hypertonic solutions.
What are 5 types of solutions?
There are many different types of solutions. Some examples of different solutions are isotonic solutions, hypertonic solutions and hypotonic solutions.
Hypotonic and hypertonic describe the concentration of the-?
Hypotonic and hypertonic describe the concentration of the solute.
is water hypotonic?
yes it is hypotonic to normal water. for more info, see is distilled water hypotonic or hypertonic.
Is sodium chloride hypotonic?
A sodium chloride solution can be hypo-, hyper- or isotonic depending on the concentration.
When the solution with the lower concentration of solutes is called?
It depends upon amount of solute if it in low concentration then solutions are Dilute solutions if it is very lw then solutions are very Dilute solutions.
