Why does a plant cell lose water by osmosis when put in a concentrated solution?
Not just plant cells, all cells with semi-permeable membranes loose water when placed in a more highly concentrated solution.
What are some examples of concentrated solutions?
Examples: - concentrated solution of sulfuric acid - concentrated solution of nitric acid - concentrated solution of ethanol - concentrated solution of sugar (syrup) - concentrated solution of table salt
What will happen if an amoeba is placed in a solution that is less concentrated than its cytoplasm?
If an amoeba is placed in a solution that is less concentrated than its cytoplasm (hypotonic solution), water will move into the amoeba through osmosis, causing it to swell and potentially burst. This is because the higher concentration of solutes inside the amoeba creates a gradient for water to move into the cell.
What is a solution that has very few solute particles dissolved in the solvent?
Concentrated solution. (High density solution) Supersaturated solution if amount of solute is greater than its solubility in the solvent at the given temperature.
Is water and sugar a concentrated solution?
No, a concentrated solution has a high amount of solute dissolved in a solvent. In the case of water and sugar, the concentration of sugar would need to be higher in order for the solution to be considered concentrated.
What occurs in a hypertonic solution?
Water diffuses out of the cell, and the cytoplasm shrinks and gets more concentrated .

A solution that contains many dissolved molecules in a fixed amount of solution?
Concentrated
Cytoplasm is more dilute than surrounding solution inside or outside?
The cytoplasm is more concentrated, not dilute, compared to the surrounding solution inside or outside the cell. This is due to the presence of various solutes, such as ions and proteins, that contribute to the osmolarity of the cytoplasm. This difference in concentration helps maintain cell volume and shape through osmotic processes.
