Hypotonic means higher amount of h20 and hypertonic means a smaller amount of h20. If the cell was for example in saltwater and it isn't meant to live in salt water, the inside of the cell would be hypotonic and outside would be hypertonic

A cell is dropped into a solution and the cell swells the solution is?
hypertonic hypertonic
What solution would cause a cell to shiver hypotonic or hypertonic?
hypotonic
Is a solution outside of a cell contains a greater concentration of dissolved particles than the contents of the cell the solution is said to be what?
Hypo-osmotic, it depends on the osmolality, if the osmolality is higher inside the cell its called hypotonic.
What causes cytosis?
when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution. Hypertonic or hypotonic, but I'm pretty sure hypertonic :)
What is it called when the concentration of solutes is greater outside the cell the inside?
A hypertonic environment with regard to the cell.

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

What causes hypertonic and hypotonic?
The concentration of water in and out of a cell.
What is it called when the concentration of solutes is greater outside the cell the inside?
A hypertonic environment with regard to the cell.
What are the types of solution outside the cell?
hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic...
If an animal cell shrinks it was probably placed in a . hypotonic solution hypertonic solution isotonic solution?
"hypertonic"
Is gram positive hypertonic or hypotonic?
Neither. The structure of the gram negative cell wall protects the cell from hypotonic solutions. Is this what you were asking?
How is hypotonic and hypertonic differ?
If we take a example of cell then if the solution outside the cell containing less solutes as compare to inside of cell then that solution is hypotonic and if the solution outside the cell contain more solute concentration then it is hypertonic solution
If extracellular fluid around a cell is hypotonic then the cytoplasm within the cell is what?
the outside would be hypertonic.
