the process of intake of solvent by any cell is known as picnocytosis when take as liquid and phagocytosis when engulf as solid material.
By knowing the concentrations of solute and solvent on the inside and outside of a cell, the direction of osmosis and the result of the cell can be predicted. Solutions on the outside of a cell can be described based on how they affect the cell.
Water is known as the universal solvent because it has the ability to dissolve a wide range of substances due to its polar nature and ability to form hydrogen bonds. While water may not dissolve absolutely everything, it is still able to dissolve a vast majority of substances encountered in nature, earning it the title of universal solvent.
The substance that dissolves other substances is known as the solvent. It is usually a liquid, such as water, in which other materials can be dissolved to form a solution.
Restricted calorie intake, certain medications like orlistat, and surgical procedures like liposuction or bariatric surgery can cause a reduction in fat cell number in mice.
When a solvent and solute are combined, they form a mixture known as a solution. The solute dissolves in the solvent, leading to a homogenous mixture with uniform composition throughout.

Water dissolves thousands of compounds (organic and inorganic) no one other solvent dissolves such huge no of compounds so it is known as universal solvent.
DCM, also known as dichloromethane, is a polar solvent.
By knowing the concentrations of solute and solvent on the inside and outside of a cell, the direction of osmosis and the result of the cell can be predicted. Solutions on the outside of a cell can be described based on how they affect the cell.
I believe it is all to do with diffusion.The solvent particles will move from an area of high concentration to the area of low concentration (the cell).
It will then be in an isotonic/isosmotic environment, and nothing will happen to the cell.
No, water is known as a universal solvent.
It acts as a solvent and reactant in cell metabolism.
The solute is the part that is being dissolved, and the solvent is the part that does the dissolving.
Water is a universal solvent.
