vinegar is a hypotonic solution if you would like an example take an egg and put it in to a glass of vinegar and the egg will swell.

Why does a cell plant burst in a hypo tonic solution?
simple diffusion. When you surround a cell with water the water diffuses through the cell membrane causing it to swell and burst. The opposite is hyper tonic.
What is the name of a hypo-tonic solution used in intravenous infusion?
Ringers lactate
What kind of solution causes cells to rupture when they are bathed in it?
A hypo-tonic solution causes cells to rupture when they are bathed in it.
How are hypertonic solution and hypo tonic Solution related?
A hypertonic solution has the solute greater than the solvent, whereas a hypotonic solution is the reverse.
What will happen to an egg in hypo tonic water?
In a hyptonic solution, water will move into the cells of the egg, and it will swell, and the cells will burst.
What is hyper tonic and what is hypo tonic?
i think the question that you are asking is what is the difference between hyper and hypo tonic. A fluid that has a greater concentration of solutes in comparison to another solution is a hypertonic solution. A hypotonic solution is a fluid that has a lower concentraton of solutes in comparison to another solution.
Which solution contains a higher concentration of solvent that the solution it is being compared with?
A hypo-tonic solution contains higher concentration of solvent. When it is compared with a hyper-tonic solution.

Which solution has more solute-hypo or hypertonic?
hyper

Is blood opaque?
This depends on the solution you add the blood to in an isotonic solution the blood is opaque. In a hypo-tonic solution the blood is completely transparent. In a hyper-tonic solution the blood is virtually opaque however does allow some light through.
What kind of solution causes cells to rupture when they are bathed in it?
A hypo-tonic solution causes cells to rupture when they are bathed in it.
How are hypertonic solution and hypo tonic Solution related?

Does water go from hyper tonic to hypo tonic?
i think the question that you are asking is what is the difference between hyper and hypo tonic. A fluid that has a greater concentration of solutes in comparison to another solution is a hypertonic solution. A hypotonic solution is a fluid that has a lower concentraton of solutes in comparison to another solution.
What happens to high salinity water wean it is in the same area as low salinity water?
What happens is, the high salinity water (hyper tonic solution), mixes with the low salinity water (Hypo tonic solution), and eventually the sodium and chloride ions will slowly move into the lower salt water, and create a uniformly salty water.
Is D5.45 hypo or hyper?
hyper
What is done to a cell that is placed in a hypo tonic solution?
It will probably burst.A hypo-tonic solution means that there is less dissolved solute in the solution than there is in the cell, and a greater concentration of the solution (ie water).Since there's a greater concentration of water outside the cell, osmosis will cause a net movement of water into the cell, causing it to swell and most-likely burst.
