When pollen grains are placed in a 10 percent sugar solution, they will absorb water from the solution through osmosis. This can cause the pollen grains to swell and become turgid. The sugar solution provides a hypertonic environment, leading to an influx of water into the pollen grains.
Hypotonic Solution
Try it yourself !
the cells are dead so the potato whould not perform any movement
When sugar is placed in water, it dissolves to form a sugar solution. The sugar molecules break apart and mix with the water molecules, resulting in a homogeneous mixture.
The plant with flexible cell walls when placed in a hypertonic solution tends to grow larger in size by uptaking the solution by the principle of osmosis where molecules from higher concentration moves to a region of lower concentration and this happens in the cell through small minute pores present in the cell walls.
Hypotonic Solution
Isotonic solution
Nothing. There would be no gradient between the cell and the solution.
It will shrink.
hello tarryn
yes
It turns blue.
The cell expands/gets bigger.
It would get salty! duhhh
When iron is placed in copper sulfate solution, a chemical reaction occurs where the iron displaces the copper in the solution, forming iron sulfate and copper metal. This is known as a displacement reaction.
When placed in a hypertonic solution, an amoeba will lose water to the surrounding environment through osmosis. This loss of water causes the cell to shrink and may eventually lead to dehydration and cell death if the solution is highly concentrated.
When a plant cell is placed in an hypotonic solution it becomes swollen and hard. The cell takes in water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting.
