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.

The type of contraction in which there is a change in the length of a muscle but no change in its tension?

What is length x width of 1 sq yard?

There are an infinite number of solutions. Assuming that length is at least as great as the width, the length can take any value greater or equal to 1 yard. If the length is x yards, then the width is 1/x yards. For example, 50 yards * 1/50 yards or 1050 yards * 10-50 yards are possible solutions.
