What is the effect of the salt solution on the red blood cells in hyper tonic?
Red blood cells in a hypertonic solution will shrink. This occurs as water moves out of the red blood cell.
Is it a hyper tonic cells if water will enter the cell by osmosis?
Yes .
Why does a cell plant burst in a hypo tonic solution?
A plant cell bursts in a hypotonic solution because water enters the cell through osmosis, causing it to swell. The increased water uptake in a hypotonic environment creates pressure on the cell wall, eventually leading to bursting.
When red blood cell bursts what is it called?
After it bursts, it will fall onto the tissue and eventually turn into tissue.
Why does a plant cell shrink when put in hyper tonic solution?
they don't because they have a cell wall. they have what we call plasmolisis. which is when the it looses water (because of the concentration gradient)
When a red blood cell draws in water and bursts it is said to undergo?
hemolysis
What is the difference between hypo and hypertonic?
Hypo- tonic is a state in which the amount of solute (essentailly ions) inside a cell is less than the amount of solute outside a cell. In this situation a cell will take in water in order to take in more solute and eventually reach a state of equilibrium, or isotonic. Hyper- tonic is a state in which the amount of solute inside a cell is more than the amount outside the cell. The cell will lose water in this case in an effort to remove more ions and reach a state of ion concentration equal with the environment.
What is function of hypo tonic solution?
A hypotonic solution has a lower solute concentration compared to the cell. When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will move into the cell causing it to swell and potentially burst. This can be harmful to cells, especially red blood cells.
What does hypertonic mean in a cell?
Hyper tonic means when one part of a cell has a higher activity of fluids from the higher chance of solute
What effect is produced from placing a cell in a strong salt solution?
Since solutions natural move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration, the solution is hyper-tonic. The salt will move rapidly into the cell, causing the cell to expand and then explode.
When a red blood cell draws in water and bursts is said to undergo what?
When a red blood cell draws in water and bursts, it is said to undergo hemolysis. This can be caused by exposure to hypotonic solutions that cause water to move into the cell, leading to swelling and eventually rupture.
What are the results if you put a plant cell and an animal cell in a hyper tonic solution?
The plant cell will shrink, but its cell wall will prevent it from completely collapsing. In contrast, the animal cell will shrink and may undergo crenation due to the hypertonic solution causing water to leave the cell.
