What happens in a hypertonic solution?

In a hypertonic solution there is a higher concentration of a solute than another. Water diffuses out of the cell making it shrivel up.

What happens if the alcohol treated cell is kept in hypertonic solution?

If an alcohol-treated cell is kept in a hypertonic solution, it will likely shrink due to osmosis. The hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration than the cell, causing water to move out of the cell and into the solution, leading to cell dehydration and shrinkage.

What happens to a cell in a hypertonic solution?

In a hypertonic solution, the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside. This causes water to move out of the cell, leading to shrinkage or plasmolysis. The cell may become dehydrated and lose its normal shape.

What happens when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution?

When a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will move out of the cell through osmosis, causing the cell to shrink or shrivel up. This is because the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside, creating a concentration gradient that drives water out of the cell.


If a cell is dropped in any solution and the cell does not change size by either shrinking or swelling what is the solution?
