It expands. Get bigger over a period of time.
What else can I help you with?
What is the environment of a red blood cell when red blood cells are approximately 0.25 percent salt Red blood cells are placed in distilled water?
The distilled water is a hypotonic environment.
What happens to carrots in distilled water?
Carrots placed in distilled water will become limp or wilted as they lose water due to osmosis. The concentration of solutes inside the carrot cells is higher than that of the distilled water, causing water to move out of the cells, leading to the wilting effect.
What happen if the white blood cell is put in distilled water?
If a white blood cell is placed in distilled water, water will enter the cell through osmosis. This will cause the cell to swell and eventually burst, leading to its destruction. The process is known as lysis.
Why is the pH meter placed in distilled water before testing each solution?
Not the pH-meter, but the electrode.
Why is it ok to drink distilled water but detrimental to red blood cells?
1) Red blood cells placed in placed in distilled water cannot reach equilibrium so they will lyse due to osmosis.2) Water you drink is assimilated into the body through the gut...it doesn't just hit the bloodstream or any other unprotected cells.
Brad placed a drop of blood in some distilled water. What happened in the red blood cells?
When Brad placed a drop of blood in distilled water, the red blood cells experienced a process called osmosis. Since the distilled water is hypotonic compared to the intracellular fluid of the red blood cells, water entered the cells, causing them to swell. If enough water enters, the cells may eventually burst in a process known as hemolysis.
What happens to a prune when placed in distilled water does it shrink swell or stay the same and why?
When a prune is placed in distilled water, it will swell. This is because distilled water has a higher concentration of water molecules compared to the prune, causing water to move into the prune through osmosis, resulting in swelling as the prune absorbs water.
Do gummy bears grow larger in distilled water or tap water?
they grow bigger in distilled!! i just did this project in school.
What will happen if a gram-positive bacteria is placed in distilled water and penicillin?
no changes
When the onion and cheek epithelial cells was placed in the distilled water?
eat cholate
What would happen if you placed a slice of cucumber in distilled water?
If a cucumber is placed in distilled water, the water molecules will flow into the cell by osmosis. This happens because the distilled water solution has a lower osmotic pressure than the cucumber cell.
What happens if an egg is soaked in distilled water?
An egg placed in distilled water will expand more than an egg placed in the salt solution because thee water concentration of the water in the beaker is greater the the water concentration of the egg.
Is steam distilled water the same as regular distilled water?
No. Distilled water has been completely purified; bottled water is just water from a stream or river, placed in a bottle and sold.
What term describes the condition of plant cells after being placed in distilled water?
Plasmolysis describes the condition of plant cells after being placed in distilled water. In plasmolysis, water exits the cell by osmosis, causing the cell membrane to detach from the cell wall. This results in the cell shrinking and the cytoplasm pulling away from the cell wall.
Would a reaction occur if a piece of tin were placed in distilled water with a piece of zinc?
no
What is the environment of a red blood cell when red blood cells are approximately 0.25 percent salt Red blood cells are placed in distilled water?
The distilled water is a hypotonic environment.
What happens to carrots in distilled water?
Carrots placed in distilled water will become limp or wilted as they lose water due to osmosis. The concentration of solutes inside the carrot cells is higher than that of the distilled water, causing water to move out of the cells, leading to the wilting effect.
