What happens when water moves out of a cell if the cell is placed in a what solution?
Hypotonic Solution
What happens when a cell is placed in an isotonic solution?
Nothing. There would be no gradient between the cell and the solution.
What happens when the concentration of dissolved substances is in the same in both the cell and the solution in which it is placed?
Isotonic solution
What solution is a cell placed in when both the cell and the solution in which it is placed?
htpotonic
How does hypersonic solution and hypotonic solution differ in meaning?
A hypersonic solution refers to a solution that has a higher concentration of solute compared to another solution. On the other hand, a hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solute compared to another solution. Hypertonic solutions will cause water to flow out of a cell, while hypotonic solutions will cause water to flow into a cell.
What happens to plant cells when placed in a hypotonic solution?
When a plant cell is placed in an hypotonic solution it becomes swollen and hard. The cell takes in water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting.
What happens to the pressure inside a cell that is placed in a hypertonic solution?
The pressure inside a cell that is placed in a hypertonic solution will decrease causing the cell to shrivel due to water loss
What happens to a leaf cell if it were placed in a highly concentrated salt solution?
The cell would lose water and the membrane would collapse.
What solution is placed in the cell when the concentration of dissolved substances will be greater in the cell than in the solution in which it is placed?

When a plant with flexible cell walls is placed in a hypertonic solution what happens?
The plant with flexible cell walls when placed in a hypertonic solution tends to grow larger in size by uptaking the solution by the principle of osmosis where molecules from higher concentration moves to a region of lower concentration and this happens in the cell through small minute pores present in the cell walls.
What happens to a cell when it is placed into a solution that is hypo-tonic to it?
Water moves into the cell by osmosis. If it is a plant cell, it will become fully turgid. If it is an animal cell, the cell will become larger and larger and will eventually burst.
What happens to an amoeba when it is placed in hypertonic solution?
When placed in a hypertonic solution, an amoeba will lose water to the surrounding environment through osmosis. This loss of water causes the cell to shrink and may eventually lead to dehydration and cell death if the solution is highly concentrated.
