Water enters a cell when the solution surrounding the cell is?

Hypotonic, meaning that the solution has a lower concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the cell. This creates a concentration gradient that drives water molecules to move into the cell to balance the solute concentration.

A hypotonic solution.


What type of solution surrounds a cell when the cell gets bigger?

a hypotonic solution


When placed in a hypotonic solution what will happen to the cell?

If cells are placed in a hypotonic solution the cells gain water. The hypotonic solution has lower solute concentration then the cell's cytoplasm so the water will enter via osmosis.


What is a hypotonic solution?

A hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solutes compared to the solution it is being compared to. When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will move into the cell causing it to swell and potentially burst due to osmotic pressure.
