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
A cell is dropped into a solution and the cell swells the solution is?
hypertonic hypertonic
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
What direction does water move when cells are placed in hypertonic solution?
Water moves out of the cell in hypertonic solution.
What happens to a animal cell when placed in an hypertonic solution?
In a hypertonic solution water is most likely to move out of the cell because it is in a high concentration and the cell will shrink. They tend to give up water across the permiable cell membrane
What happens when a solution is hypertonic?
the cell lets out water to make it an isotonic solution
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
A cell is dropped into a solution and the cell swells the solution is?
hypertonic hypertonic
What refers to a solution with more molecules outside the cell than inside the cell?
hypertonic solution
What happens in a hypertonic solution?
In a hypertonic solution there is a higher concentration of a solute than another. Water diffuses out of the cell making it shrivel up.

hypertonic
What direction does water move when cells are placed in hypertonic solution?
Water moves out of the cell in hypertonic solution.
If a cell is dropped in any solution and the cell does not change size by either shrinking or swelling what is the solution?
isotonic
What happens in hypertonic solutions?
In a hypertonic solution there is a higher concentration of a solute than another. Water diffuses out of the cell making it shrivel up.

What happens to a cell that is placed in a hypertonic hypotonic and isotonic environment?
An Animal Cell in hypertonic solution will look shriveled due to osmotic effects on the cell. the hypertonic solution means there is more water potential outside of the cell, water moves from a low water potential to a high water potential. Therefore the water diffuses out of the cell decreasing the volume bringing the cell membrane in making it look shriveled up.
What does a hypertonic solution have?
A hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration than the cell the solution is in. (So the cell will shrink when it is in a hypertonic solution, because water will leave the cell in an attempt to balance the ratios of solute to water both inside and outside of the cell.)
