It is what occurs during saltwater drowning. When reverse osmosic takes place and the cell shrivels up and dies. It is what occurs during saltwater drowning. When reverse osmosic takes place and the cell shrivels up and dies.

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 solution does crenation occur in?

Crenation is the loss of water from an animal cell due to osmosis. Lysis is the rupture of the cell wall due to too much water moving into an animal cell due to osmosis. Both crenation and lysis have drastic effects on the animal cell. Crenation is the equivalent of flaccid plant cells and lysis is the equivalent of turgid for plant cells. The key difference between lysis and turgid is that plants have a cellulose cell wall so do not rupture or burst the cell wall like animal cells with lysis do.
