Want this question answered?
Hypotonic and hypertonic describe the concentration of the solute.
A hypertonic solution has the solute greater than the solvent, whereas a hypotonic solution is the reverse.
solvent
NO.Corn syrup is hypertonic
Into. Either hypotonic or hypertonic both tend to optimal tonicity. Hypotonic vesicles will welcome water while hypertonic vesicles will shed water.
No. Hypertonic can be seen as hypo-osmotic and same for hypotonic and hyper-osmotic
hypertonic hypertonic
Hypotonic and hypertonic describe the concentration of the solute.
hypertonic and hypotonic are relative terms. A solution that is hypertonic to tap H2O could be hypotonic to seawater. In using these terms, you must provide a comparison, as in 'the solution is hypertonic to the cells cytoplasm'.
hypertonic!
A hypertonic solution has the solute greater than the solvent, whereas a hypotonic solution is the reverse.
hypotonic
vinegar is hypotonic
That depends entirely on what solution it is in. Hypotonic and hypertonic are relative terms to compare to solutions usually serperated by a seme-permeable membrane.
