The cell will experience crenation and shrink. The cell will lose water through osmosis when placed in a hypertonic solution.

What do you call it when a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution?

yes...when placed in a hypertonic solution, it goes shrinks (plasmolysis).


What happens to the pressure inside a cell that is placed in a hypertonic solution?

The pressure inside a cell that is placed in a hypertonic solution will decrease causing the cell to shrivel due to water loss


Is a hypertonic solution is one with low solute concentration?

No, a hypertonic solution is one with a higher solute concentration compared to another solution. When a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell, causing it to shrink or crenate.


Cell is placed in a solution If the cell is observed to shrink the solution must be relative to the interior of the cell?

The solution must be hypertonic compared to the interior of the cell, meaning that it has a higher concentration of solutes. This causes water to leave the cell by osmosis, leading to shrinkage.


What cells that are placed in a hypertonic solution of pure water tend to?

Cells placed in a hypertonic solution of pure water will tend to lose water and shrink due to the higher concentration of solutes outside the cell causing water to move out of the cell by osmosis. This can lead to dehydration and potential cell damage.


Does crenation take place when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution?

Yes, crenation occurs when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution. In this situation, water moves out of the cell due to the higher solute concentration outside the cell, causing the cell to shrink and develop a wrinkled appearance.


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

hypertonic solution
