What happens when water moves out of a cell if the cell is placed in a what solution?
Hypotonic Solution
What happens to a cell when it is place in a hypotonic solution?
The cell explodes!
What happens to cells placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions using diagrams?
In an isotonic solution the cell would be unchanged. In a hypertonic solution water would flow out of the cell and it would shrink. In a hypotonic solution water would flow into the cell and it would expand like a balloon and possibly rupture.
A red blood cell placed in a hypotonic solution?
This is not true. An isotonic solution is one that is equivalent in concentration to that found within human plasma so that is usually desirable. On the other hand, a person may have too little of an ion. In that case the amount needs to be replaced using a hypertonic solution. The trouble with that is that if the patient is not carefully monitored, too much of whatever ion is used will enter the cells, causing the cells to draw more water in to maintain balance. When that happens, especially with sodium, the patient must be monitored closely because giving too much can cause the sodium level in the cells to exceed normal levels. When that happens, the cells draw more water in which can cause the cells to swell and then the membranes to begin to leak such as we see with pulmonary edema.
What happens to a red blood cell when placed hypotonic solution?
In isotonic solution nothing ail happen. In hypertonic solution fluid will leave the cell to dilute the external fluid, causing the cell to crenate. In Hypotonic solution fluid will move into the cell to dilute the contents of the cell, causing it to bust or haemolyse.

What happens when cells plasmolyze?
i dont know.......maybe a hypotonic solution!
What happens in a hypotonic solution?
A hypotonic solution is a solution that has less solute and more water than another solution. The concentration of total dissolved solutes is not equal on both sides, there will be net movement of water molecules into the cell.
What happens to plant cells when placed in a hypotonic solution?
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.
What happens to a fresh water organism in 20 percent of saline solution?
it dies since it enters a hypotonic solution thus making it shrink
What happens when a hypotonic solution is separated from a hypertonic solution by an osmotic membrane?
They diffuse into one another until the point where they reach equilibrium. This point, however cannot be predicted from what you gave nor is it any more likely to be in favor of the hypertonic, the hypotonic, or your idea of isotonic.
What happens to cells placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions using diagrams?

What happens to both plant and animal cells when they are placed into a solution that is hypotonic?
Both types of cells will have endo-osmosis and will become turgid
What happens to vitamin c when exposed to air?
The concentration of vitamin C in the solution decreases.
What do isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic deal with?
A hypertonic solution is one containing more solute, a hypotonic solution contains more water, and an isotonic solution contains equal amounts of solute and water. Whether a solution is hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic can determine what happens to the cell. In a hypertonic solution, solute will diffuse into the cell down the concentration gradient. In a hypotonic solution, water will move into the cell by osmosis down a water potential gradient, and in an isotonic solution nothing will happen because the concentration and water potential are the same both inside and outside the cell.
What happens to a cell when it is placed in a medium containing distilled water?
As you know,distilled water is a kind of hypotonic solution which means it comprises more water.If you place an animal cell into an hypotonic solution,the cell swells and finally becomes burst because of not having a rigid cell wall.Nevertheless,if you place a plant cell an hypotonic solution,it can resist the osmotic pressure due to having a rigid cell wall.As,cell wall serves turgor pressure,it assists cell not to swell and burst
