Yes, and this can cause the cell to explode. This is not life threatening however, because we have skin cells to protect us.

∙ 7y agoIt is called a false statement, because a RBC placed in HYPERtonic solution will not rupture, but rather it will shrink.

What cells that are placed in a hypertonic solution of pure water tend to?
Cells that are placed in a hypertonic solution of pure water tend to ___
If an animal cell shrinks it was probably placed in a . hypotonic solution hypertonic solution isotonic solution?
"hypertonic"
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.
What causes cytosis?
when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution. Hypertonic or hypotonic, but I'm pretty sure hypertonic :)
The shrinking of a plant cell membrane away from the cell wall when placed in a hypertonic solution is called?
The shrinking of a plant cell membrane away from the cell wall when placed in a hypertonic solution is plasmolysis

What happens to cells placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions using diagrams?
In an isotonic solution the cell would be unchanged. In a hypertonic solution water would flow out of the cell and it would shrink. In a hypotonic solution water would flow into the cell and it would expand like a balloon and possibly rupture.
Cell is placed in a solution If the cell is observed to shrink the solution must be relative to the interior of the cell?
hypertonic
A bag with a 2 percent solution is placed in a beaker that has a 10 percent solution is the solution in the bag hypotonic hypertonic or isotonic?
hypertonic
Water moves out of a cell if the cell is placed in a solution?
Hypertonic solution. To further elaborate my point, hypertonic solution is a solution which has less water potential and more solutes as compared to inside the cell. Osmosis is the movement of water from a region of high water potential to low water potential through a partially permeable membrane. Therefore, water leaves the cell into the solution. Hope this helps!!:)
Water moves out of a cell if it is placed in this kind of solution?
hypertonic solution!
Crenation occurs when blood is placed in a?
hypertonic solution
If a cell is placed in a solution water flows from the cycloplasm of the cell to the solution?
Hypertonic
