What happends to a cell when placed in a hypertonic solution?
When a cell is put in a hypertonic solution, it shrinks and shrivels. You alwasy have t say: This solution is hypertonic to ...A hypertonic solution means that there is more matter in the solution than in the object it is compared to. The cell will shrink and shrivel because the water will leave the cell to try to dissolve the matter outside of it.
What kind of solution is D5NS?
Hypertonic
Is 10 percent glucose solution hypertonic?
No. Everything below 0.9% of NaCl is hypotonic and every solution with concentration over 0.9% is hypertonic solution. Isotonic solution (to blood) is the one that has 0.9% of NaCl, or some other concentration of another compound.
What is a term used for a less concentrated solution?
A DILUTE solution is the usual terminology for a less concentrated solution.
Which solution has more solute-hypo or hypertonic?
hyper
A solution with a high concentration of non-permeating solutes is called?
Hypertonic solution
What happens to cells in saltwater?
cells shrink because salt water is hypertonic solution.
What will happen to a carrot in a concentrated salt solution?
D carot will shrink bcos it is surounded by an hypertonic solution
What occurs in a hypertonic solution?
Water diffuses out of the cell, and the cytoplasm shrinks and gets more concentrated .
Why give an isotonic solution?
When comparing solutions, those that have the same concentration are isotonic. One that is more concentrated is hypertonic; less concentrated is hypotonic.
If solution A has more solute and less water than solution B then solution A is what to solution B?
Solution A is highly concentrated than solution B.
What will happen to a cell in a hypertonic solution?
I will take the cell to be animal cell. The hypertonic solution is taken as hypertonic saline solution. The cell will shrink in that case. There will be loss of water to the exterior of the cell. The biochemical cellular functions will be adversely affected. The cell may die if the solution is sufficiently hypertonic.
Is TPN a hypertonic solution?

What refers to a solution with more molecules outside the cell than inside the cell?

What solution is hypertonic?
A solution on which the concentration of solutes is greater than that of the cell that resided on the solutionIn healthcare you will often hear the words iso- and hypertonic solutions. A third option the "hypotonic" solution is also a possbility.As many people will know, the human blood contains both sodium, potassium, chloride salts. In healthcare a solution will be hypertonic when the amount of salts in it exceeds that of human blood. It will be isotonic (iso meaning "same") when the amount of salts are comparable to that of blood. Finally the solution will be considered hypotonic when the amount of salts present in the solution is less than that of blood.Hypertonic: More concentratedIsotonic: Just as concentratedHypotonic: Less as concentrated.
What kind of solution occurs in your mouth when you eat something with salt?
