The cell will shrinks as the fluid inside the cell will flow out due to osmosis.

What would happen if an injected solution were hypertonic to your blood?

If an injected solution is hypertonic to your blood, it means that the solution has a higher concentration of solutes compared to the blood plasma. This would lead to water moving out of your blood cells into the surrounding hypertonic solution to balance the solute concentrations, causing the blood cells to shrink or crenate. This can disrupt normal cellular functions and potentially lead to dehydration of tissues and adverse physiological effects.


What will happen when you put an animal cell in a in hypertonic solution?

it will shrink


What would happen to a houseplant if you water it with salt water hypertonic solution?

It will die.


What would happen to a loin fish in a hypertonic solution?

The solution will gain water from the fish, till the fish shrinks, and if the fish is not removed from the solution, the fish will die


What would happen to an animal cell if it was placed into a beaker containing a hypertonic solution?

You need dayan 2 hours


What will happen to a cell in a hypertonic solution?

In a hypertonic solution, the cell will lose water to the surrounding solution through osmosis, causing the cell to shrink or shrivel up. This occurs because the solute concentration outside the cell is higher than inside, resulting in a net movement of water out of the cell.


What will happen to a cell dropped into a solution of hypertonic salt water?

The cell will lose water due to osmosis, causing it to shrink or shrivel up. The higher concentration of salt outside the cell compared to inside creates a hypertonic environment, leading to water moving out of the cell to try to balance the concentration inside and outside.


What would happen if fluid outside the cells became hypertonic?

Acell placed in a highly concentrated solution will result in the water molecules diffusing out of the cell. Eventually, the cell will shrink. It should be noted, however, that not all cells in a hypertonic solution will shrink. The cells have ways to circumvent hypertonicity (see osmoregulation).


What would happen if an cell was placed in a hypertonic solution?

It would shrivel up and die, because water would flow out of the cell.


What happent to a plant cell when placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions?

When placed in an isotonic solution nothin will happen to the cell, but when placed in a hypotonic solution the cell will implode (not explode, thus the water will push the cell on itself until implosion occurs.) Last but not least a hypertonic solution will cause the cell to explode by too much water entering the cell because there is already more water in the cell then in the solution. So the simple answer is: Isotonic solution= nothing, hypotonic solution= implosion, and hypertonic solution= explosion.


What will happen if one of your red blood cells is placed in an environment with a lot of salt?

The water will flow out of the cell into the hypertonic solution and the red blood cell will crenate (crush).


What happen to onion cell epidermis if placed in hypertonic solution?

If an onion cell epidermis is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will move out of the cell due to osmosis, causing the cell to shrink and the cell membrane to pull away from the cell wall. This process is known as plasmolysis.
