What is a hypotonic solution what will happen to a cell placed in a hypotonic solution?
it swells and burst
What else can I help you with?
What would happen if a cell placed in a hypotonic solution?
When a cell is placed in a Hypotonic solution, the water diffuses into the cell, causing the cell to swell and possibly explode.
When placed in a hypotonic solution what will happen to the cell?
If cells are placed in a hypotonic solution the cells gain water. The hypotonic solution has lower solute concentration then the cell's cytoplasm so the water will enter via osmosis.
What happens when water moves out of a cell if the cell is placed in a what solution?
Hypotonic Solution
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.
Will a cell placed in hypotonic solution stay the same?
No, a cell placed in a hypotonic solution will not stay the same. In a hypotonic solution, the concentration of solutes outside the cell is lower than inside, causing water to move into the cell. This influx of water can lead to cell swelling and potentially bursting if the pressure becomes too great.
Hemolysis may occur when a blood cell is placed into what?
hypotonic solution
What would happen if you put liver cell in a hyptonic solution?
If an animal cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, there will be a net movement of water into the cell and it will eventually burst. If an animal cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, there will be a net movement of water out of the cell and it will shrink.
If a cell is placed in what solution the concentration of dissolved substances will be the same in both the cell and the solution in which it is placed?
Hypotonic :) good luck on plato :D
Why does a cell placed in hypotonic solution swell?
A cell placed in a hypotonic solution will swell because the solute concentration outside the cell is lower than inside. Water will move from the solution into the cell to equalize the concentration, causing the cell to expand and potentially burst.
Is the solution hypotonic in or out of the cell?
The solution is hypotonic when it is outside of the cell.
What happent to a plant cell when placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions?
When placed in an isotonic solution nothin will happen to the cell, but when placed in a hypotonic solution the cell will implode (not explode, thus the water will push the cell on itself until implosion occurs.) Last but not least a hypertonic solution will cause the cell to explode by too much water entering the cell because there is already more water in the cell then in the solution. So the simple answer is: Isotonic solution= nothing, hypotonic solution= implosion, and hypertonic solution= explosion.
What happens to a red blood cell when placed hypotonic solution?
In isotonic solution nothing ail happen. In hypertonic solution fluid will leave the cell to dilute the external fluid, causing the cell to crenate. In Hypotonic solution fluid will move into the cell to dilute the contents of the cell, causing it to bust or haemolyse.
