they absorb water through the permeable membrane and on ovr absorbing...they burst up
Hypotonic Solution
Cells placed in a hypertonic solution of pure water will tend to lose water and shrink due to the higher concentration of solutes outside the cell causing water to move out of the cell by osmosis. This can lead to dehydration and potential cell damage.
Isotonic solution
Nothing. There would be no gradient between the cell and the solution.
hello tarryn
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.
It turns blue.
The cell expands/gets bigger.
Its period increases
When iron is placed in copper sulfate solution, a chemical reaction occurs where the iron displaces the copper in the solution, forming iron sulfate and copper metal. This is known as a displacement reaction.
Hypertonic solution. To further elaborate my point, hypertonic solution is a solution which has less water potential and more solutes as compared to inside the cell. Osmosis is the movement of water from a region of high water potential to low water potential through a partially permeable membrane. Therefore, water leaves the cell into the solution. Hope this helps!!:)
In a hypertonic solution water is most likely to move out of the cell because it is in a high concentration and the cell will shrink. They tend to give up water across the permiable cell membrane
