What solution that causes a cell to swell cause of osmosis?
Solution causes a cell to swell by osmosis
How does the cell membrane control water balance in the cell?
Osmosis, which is the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from where it is in high concentration to where it is in lower concentration. The purpose of osmosis is to equalize the concentration of solutes inside a cell and outside a cell.
During osmosis which direction does the water move into the cell out of the cell or does it move in and put equally?
During osmosis water moves in and out of the cell equally in both directions.
A cell placed in a soltuion shrinks by the process of osmosis What kind of solution is outside the cell?
Osmosis is the process in which solvent move from low to high concentration region.As per the question asked,since the cell is shrinked,the medium around the cell is hypertonic solution i.e.,solution of high concentration.
What Produces no change in cell volume because of osmosis?
it is an isotonic solution.
What solution that causes a cell to swell cause of osmosis?
Solution causes a cell to swell by osmosis

What are the results when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution?
The cell will experience crenation and shrink. The cell will lose water through osmosis when placed in a hypertonic solution.
Why does water enter a cell that is placed in a hypotonic solution?
water enters a cell by osmosis, causing the cell to swell.
Describe the water molecules move through the cell membrane during osmosis?
Describe how water molecules move through the cell membrane during osmosis?
How do control osmosis?
By controlling solute concentration inside the cell :D
What is the contraction or shrinking of the cell membrane of a plant cell in a hypertonic solution in response to the loss of water by osmosis?
plasmolysis
How does a plant cell fight osmosis in a hypotonic solution?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water - and a hypotonic solution means it expands. a plant cell sap has a lower water potential causing the water to enter the cell - it does not fight osmosis, it works with it.
