What else can I help you with?
Is d5.45 hypertonic?
No, a solution with a dextrose concentration of 5.45% is isotonic. Hypertonic solutions have a higher solute concentration compared to the cell, causing water to move out of the cell and potentially leading to cell shrinkage.
To which type of solution does water move: hypertonic or hypotonic?
Water moves from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution.
What direction does water move when cells are placed in hypertonic solution?
Water moves out of the cell in hypertonic solution.
What kind of solution causes the cell to shrink?
salt water. this will cause the cell to lose it's water osmotically resulting in it becoming plasmolysedA hypertonic solution
What type of solution is hypertonic?
Hypertonic solutions cause cells to lose water.
Does a hypertonic solution have more water compared to other types of solutions?
No, a hypertonic solution has less water compared to other types of solutions.
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.)
What is the solution that contains more water than what is located in the cells?
A hypertonic Solution. a solution that has a greater concentration of water than the cell content is hypotonic, meaning there is less concentration of water inside the cell, which results in an increase or an expansion of the cell.
Which solution has more solute-hypo or hypertonic?
A hypertonic solution has more solute compared to a hypotonic solution. In a hypertonic solution, the concentration of solutes is higher, causing water to move out of the cells. In a hypotonic solution, the concentration of solutes is lower, which leads to water moving into the cells.
Water moves out of a cell if it is placed in this kind of solution?
hypertonic solution!
Is a hypertonic solution is one with low solute concentration?
No, a hypertonic solution is one with a higher solute concentration compared to another solution. When a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell, causing it to shrink or crenate.
What is the term used to describe a type of solution in which cells will lose water to their environment?
Cells immersed in hypertonic solutions lose water and shrink, or crenate.
