Is distilled water hypotonic to potato or hypertonic?
Distilled water is hypotonic to potato.
Is a potato in salt water Hypertonic hypotonic or isotonic?
A potato in salt water is hypotonic. This is because the salt water has a higher concentration of solutes compared to the potato cells, causing water to move out of the potato cells, leading to the cell shrinking.
Will a potato lose weight if it is peeled and soaked in a salt water solution for a day?
Because of osmosis the water in the potato will move into the hypertonic solution causing the potato to lose weight.
in osmosis What happen in potato A and in potato B?
In osmosis, water will move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. In potato A, if placed in a hypertonic solution (higher solute concentration), water will move out of the potato causing it to shrink (plasmolysis). In potato B, if placed in a hypotonic solution (lower solute concentration), water will move into the potato causing it to swell (turgor pressure).
How does the concentration of salt water affect the crispness of potato chips?
Increasing the concentration of salt in the water will create a hypertonic solution. When potato slices are soaked in this hypertonic solution, water will move out of the potato cells through osmosis, resulting in a crispier texture due to the removal of excess moisture.
Why does the length of potato strips change in hypertonic and hypotonic solutions?
In a hypertonic solution, potato strips lose water through osmosis, causing them to shrink and become shorter because the surrounding solution has a higher concentration of solutes than the potato cells. Conversely, in a hypotonic solution, water enters the potato cells, leading to swelling and an increase in length as the cells become turgid due to the lower concentration of solutes outside compared to inside the cells. This osmotic movement of water is driven by the concentration gradient of solutes.
Is the moon a potato?
I is made from Iron Core and Silicate Surface.
Why did water diffuse out of a potato in a test tube of Na Cl?
Water diffused out of the potato because of the high concentration of salt (NaCl) in the surrounding solution. This created a hypertonic environment, causing water to move out of the potato cells through osmosis in an attempt to balance the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cells.
A cell is dropped into a solution and the cell swells the solution is?
hypertonic hypertonic
What happens if you put potato in to a cup of distilled water and salt solution?
God will strike the potato core into oblivion and send it to hell.
What refers to a solution with more molecules outside the cell than inside the cell?
hypertonic solution
Are saltwater fish hypotonic or hypertonic?
hypertonic!
