A hypertonic Solution.

a solution that has a greater concentration of water than the cell content is hypotonic, meaning there is less concentration of water inside the cell, which results in an increase or an expansion of the cell.

What happens to a cell plant cell or animal cell when placed in following solution a hypotonic solution b isotonic solution c hypertonic solution?

When placed in an isotonic solution (i.e. a solution where the concentration of water molecules is roughly equal to the that within cells), there is equal diffusion of water into and out of the cells. Therefore, the cells find this environment suitable. In a hypotonic solution (i.e. a solution where the concentration of water molecules is much more than that within cells) water diffuses into cells as a result of which the cells swell. Excessive swelling causes the cells to burst, a phenomenon called cell lysis In a hypertonic solution (i.e. a solution where the concentration of water molecules is lesser than that within cells) water moved out from within cells to the surrounding medium. As a result of this, cells shrink.

A water solution that has the same salt concentration as the cells is said to be?

An isotonic solution. This means that the concentration of solutes in the solution is the same as the concentration of solutes inside the cells, resulting in no net movement of water across the cell membrane.


Which salt solution is more concentrated solution a which contains 18g of slat in 6l of water or solution b which contains 24g of salt in 12l of water explain?

Solution A would be more concentrated because the salt to water ratio in Solution A is 3:1. However, in Solution B, the salt to water ratio is 2:1.


A solution that contains a lower concentration of salt than living red blood cells would be?

A solution containing a lower concentration of salt than living red blood cells would be a hypotonic solution. This means that the solution has a lower solute concentration compared to the red blood cells, causing them to swell and potentially burst due to the influx of water.
