If a cell contains 97 percent water is placed into a 30 percent sugar solution what will happen to the cell?
The cell will lose water through osmosis as water moves from an area of higher concentration (inside the cell) to an area of lower concentration (outside the cell). This process will cause the cell to shrink or shrivel up.
Using examples of a cell in a sugar solution explain what is ment by an isotonic solution?
An state of isotonicity means that the concentration of sugar outside the cell is the same as inside the cell. It is also known as osmotic equililbrium. Any sugar that crosses into the cell through the membrane is offset by an equal amount of sugar exiting the cell through that membrane.
If a plant cell is put into a concentrated sugar solution what will happen?
Those animal cells placed in pure water will swell but plant cells are restricted by their cells walls. If place in a solution high in sugar (or even salt), both cells will shrink in a process called crenation (shriveling).
When placed in a hypotonic solution what will happen to the cell?
If cells are placed in a hypotonic solution the cells gain water. The hypotonic solution has lower solute concentration then the cell's cytoplasm so the water will enter via osmosis.
What will happen to a horse when sugar levels in the cell dropped?
the horse will eat something #plato
If an animal cell is put into a concentrated sugar solution what will happen?
The cell will dehydrate.

swell

What will happen if you put onion skin cell into 10 percent sugar solution?
If you place an onion skin cell into a 10 percent sugar solution, water will flow out of the cell via osmosis due to the higher concentration of sugar outside the cell. This will cause the cell to shrink and undergo plasmolysis as it loses water and shrivels up.
What is a hypotonic solution what will happen to a cell placed in a hypotonic solution?
it swells and burst
Using the example of a cell in a solution explain what is meant by isotonic solution?
An state of isotonicity means that the concentration of sugar outside the cell is the same as inside the cell. It is also known as osmotic equililbrium. Any sugar that crosses into the cell through the membrane is offset by an equal amount of sugar exiting the cell through that membrane.
What would happen if a cell placed in a hypotonic solution?
When a cell is placed in a Hypotonic solution, the water diffuses into the cell, causing the cell to swell and possibly explode.
Using the example of a cell in a sugar solution what is meant by an isotonic solution?
It basically means that it is equal or the same
What will happen when you put an animal cell in a in hypertonic solution?
it will shrink
Why is too much sugar dangerous for cells?
Too much sugar acts as a solution, which has high osmotic pressure. The cell functions are adversely affected by such solution.
If a plant cell is put into a concentrated sugar solution what will happen?
Those animal cells placed in pure water will swell but plant cells are restricted by their cells walls. If place in a solution high in sugar (or even salt), both cells will shrink in a process called crenation (shriveling).
