When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water enters the cell through osmosis, and the cell swells.
water
A plasmolysis solution is the opposite of a hypotonic solution because in a plasmolysis solution the cell will shrink due to the little amount of water outside the cell and the greater amount of water inside the cell. A plasmolysis solution only occurs in plant cells.
This process is called exocytosis. "Cyto" comes from the Greek, and means "cell."
The diffusion of water through a cell membrane is called osmosis.
Carbon Dioxide, Water and protein.
exocytosis
When water flows out of a cell, it is called exocytosis. This process involves the removal of excess water and waste products from the cell to maintain proper cell function.
OSMOSIS More specifically: Endosmosis is the movement of water into a cell Exosmosis is the movement of water out of a cell
Part of the cell is mostly water and minerals called the cell membrane
When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water enters the cell through osmosis, and the cell swells.
Osmosis
When a cell takes in food and water, it is called endocytosis. This process involves the cell engulfing substances from its external environment by forming a vesicle around them.
static
Cell membranes come into contact with water throughout the human body. The cell membrane comes into the most contact with water in the bladder, which holds urine that is mainly composed of water.
The solution is called isotonic when the cell is in equilibrium. This means that the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell is the same, resulting in no net movement of water across the cell membrane.
It is called Rain.
