The cells interior is concidered isotonic to the surrounding fluid when?
The cell's interior is considered isotonic to the surrounding fluid when there is an equal concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell, resulting in no net movement of water across the cell membrane. This balance prevents the cell from either shrinking or swelling due to osmosis.
Are two cells with identical solute concentrations isotonic to each other?
Yes, two cells with identical solute concentrations would be considered isotonic to each other. In an isotonic solution, the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell are equal, resulting in no net movement of water across the cell membrane.
What is the equal solute concentration inside and outside of the cell so water moves at equal rates?
Isotonic.
What kind of environments causes water to enter or leave the cell?
Water Movement across a cell membrane is called Osmosis. And it is dependent on the concentration of ions on each side of the cell membrane. If the concentration is higher on the inside of the cell water rushes in to dilute the ion concentration and get it to equal the outside concentration of ions and this is called hypotonic. If the concentration is higher outside the cell water will rush out of the cell to help dilute the concentration outside the cell and get the two concentrations to become equal and is called hypertonic. If the concentration is equal in both outside and inside the cell there will be no water movement and is called isotonic. Osmosis
How many oxygen molecules need to enter or exit the cell to achive equilibrium?
It depends on the initial and final concentrations of oxygen inside and outside the cell. Equilibrium is reached when the concentrations are equal, so the number of molecules needed will vary based on the specific scenario.
What is a cell in when solute concentrations inside and outside the cell are equal?
Isotonic.
What are the types of solution of osmosis?
The types of solutions in osmosis are hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic. In a hypertonic solution, the concentration of solute is higher outside the cell compared to inside, causing water to move out of the cell. In a hypotonic solution, the concentration of solute is higher inside the cell compared to outside, causing water to move into the cell. In an isotonic solution, the concentrations of solute inside and outside the cell are equal, so there is no net movement of water.
A cell is in what when solute concentration inside and outside the cell are equal?
Isotonic.
A cell is in when solute concentration inside and outside the cell are equal?
Isotonic.

Why do diffusion and osmosis happen?
they make the concentration of the solute equal inside and outside of the molecule.
Are two cells with identical solute concentrations isotonic to each other?
Yes, two cells with identical solute concentrations would be considered isotonic to each other. In an isotonic solution, the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell are equal, resulting in no net movement of water across the cell membrane.
When the concentration of solutes outside the cell and inside the cell are in equilibrium the solution is said to be?
When a cell is in a solution that has the same concentration of water and solutes, it is considered isotonic. Water still moves through the plasma membrane, but water enters and leaves the cell at an equal rate-it has reached an equilibrium, and there is no net movement of water.
What is the tonicity of a bacterial cell?
Isotonic conditions will not change the cell in bacterial or an human cell. Because the water concentration in the cell equal.Hypotonic conditions will increase the solute in the cell because of the osmotic pressure inside the cell. Cell may burst if to much solute is inside the cell. Bacterial and human cell.Hypertonic conditions is said to have osmotic pressure. Because the concentration in the environment has an higher concentration than inside the cell so all the solute will drive out of the cell and cause it to dry out.

Does 0.1N sodium thiosulfate equal 0.1M sodium thiosulfate?
No, 0.1N (normality) and 0.1M (molarity) are different units of concentration. Normality is based on equivalents of a solute, while molarity is based on moles of a solute. The two concentrations can only be equal if the solute is monoprotic or unipositive.
