Hypotonic solution
Yes, crenation occurs when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution. In this situation, water moves out of the cell due to the higher solute concentration outside the cell, causing the cell to shrink and develop a wrinkled appearance.
When a blood cell is placed in a salty solution and shrivels due to loss of water, this process is called crenation. Crenation occurs because the salt solution has a higher concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the blood cell, leading to osmosis where water moves out of the cell to balance the solute concentrations. As a result, the cell loses water and shrinks.
An example of crenation is when red blood cells lose water and shrink in a hypertonic solution, such as saltwater. This causes the cells to have a scalloped appearance due to the contraction of the cell membrane.
The condition of a cell in which the cell contents are shrunken is called crenation. Crenation occurs when a cell loses water and shrinks due to exposure to a hypertonic solution, causing the cell membrane to pull away from the cell wall.
Crenation occurs in a hypertonic solution, where the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside, causing water to leave the cell, leading to shrinkage and deformation of the cell.

Crenation is the contraction of a cell after exposure to a hypertonic solution, due to the loss of water through osmosis.Hemolysis is the breakdown of red blood cells.
The equivalent process to plasmolysis in an animal cell is called crenation. Crenation occurs when an animal cell shrinks and shrivels due to water leaving the cell, resulting in a decrease in cell volume.
An example of crenation is when red blood cells lose water and shrink in a hypertonic solution, such as saltwater. This causes the cells to have a scalloped appearance due to the contraction of the cell membrane.
Crenation occurs when animal cells are exposed to a hypertonic solution, causing shrinkage, distortion, and often leave a scalloped appearance to the edge of the cell. A common reason for crenation in red blood cells is dehydration. It is also seen when pickling and salt-curing foods.
Crenation
It will undergo crenation. This means that the red blood cell will shrink in size and become shrivelled-looking. This is due to osmosis, which is the net movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential (red blood cell) to a region of lower water potential (hypertonic solution) through a partially-permeable membrane (cell membrane).
The technical term for when a cell shrinks is crenation. This occurs if the cell is exposed to a hypertonic solution as fluid is drawn out of the cell by osmosis.
The condition of a cell in which the cell contents are shrunken is called crenation. Crenation occurs when a cell loses water and shrinks due to exposure to a hypertonic solution, causing the cell membrane to pull away from the cell wall.
In a hypotonic solution, red blood cells swell and undergo hemolysis, while in a hypertonic solution, they lose water and undergo crenation.
Crenation occurs in a hypertonic solution, where the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside, causing water to leave the cell, leading to shrinkage and deformation of the cell.
If a red blood cell is placed in a 50% NaCl solution, the cell will undergo a process called crenation, where water leaves the cell due to the high concentration of salt outside. This causes the cell to shrink and lose its normal shape, which can ultimately lead to cell damage or death.
