Which term refers to a cell that has more solute on the inside than on the outside?
not hypertonic solution
What refers to a solution with more molecules outside the cell than inside the cell?
hypertonic solution
When there's more water outside of the cell than inside cell water will?
When there's more water outside the cell than inside, water will move into the cell through a process called osmosis. This occurs because water tends to flow from areas of lower solute concentration (more water) to areas of higher solute concentration (less water) to achieve equilibrium. As a result, the cell may swell and potentially burst if the influx of water is excessive.
How is hypotonic and hypertonic differ?
If we take a example of cell then if the solution outside the cell containing less solutes as compare to inside of cell then that solution is hypotonic and if the solution outside the cell contain more solute concentration then it is hypertonic solution
Why is the outside of a nerve cell always more positive than the inside?
The outside of a nerve cell is typically more positive than the inside due to the uneven distribution of ions, primarily sodium (Na⁺) and potassium (K⁺). The sodium-potassium pump actively transports three sodium ions out of the cell and two potassium ions into the cell, creating a net positive charge outside. Additionally, the cell membrane is more permeable to potassium ions, allowing some to leak out, further contributing to the positive charge outside relative to the inside. This difference in charge is essential for generating action potentials and nerve signal transmission.
Is the way sugar enters a cell if there is more sugar outside the cell than inside the cell passive or active?
Passive (just guessing)

Which term refers to a cell that has more solute on the inside than on the outside?
not hypertonic solution
What kind of solution exists when the substances dissolved outside the cell are more abundant than those in the cytoplasm?
When solute concentration is higher on the outside of the cell, the cell is said to be in a hypertonic solution. This will result in the diffusion of water from inside the cell to outside the cell.
What happens to an animal cell when placed in concentrated sugar solution?
the concentration inside and outside the cells are unequal, to make the balance correct water is lost from the cell. If the sugar concentration outside the cell is much higher than that inside the cell then the cell may "implode". If the concentration outside the cell is less than that inside the cell then the cell gains water and may burst or "explode".
When the outside of the neuron cell is more positive than the inside the cell is?
When the outside of the neuron cell is more positive than the inside, the cell is in a state of depolarization. This shift in electrical charge can trigger an action potential, leading to the propagation of nerve impulses along the neuron.
When is a substance most likely to diffuse into a cell?
If there is the concentration of substance inside the cell is lesser than outside and cell membrane is permeable to the substance.
Will water pass back and forth when cells are placed in a strong sugar solution?
Yes, since the membrane is permeable to water. However, since there's a higher concentration of sugar (solute) outside the cell, the overall outcome would be more water molecules outside the cell than inside, and it would tend to stay that way until solute concentrations are reversed or equalled.
Is calcium more concentrated inside or outside the cell?
Overall none, or the cell would swell or shrink until the osmotic pressure becomes the same. But : most of the sodium is outside & most of the potasium is inside. most of the proteins are inside most of the sugar is outside (depending on insulin).
What are the examples of hypotonic solution?
the concentration of water is more outside the cell is more than inside thecell
The concentration of material is greater on the outside of the cell than the inside in what solution?
The concentration of material is greater on the outside of the cell than the inside in a hypertonic solution. In this solution, there is a higher concentration of solutes outside the cell compared to inside, causing water to move out of the cell, leading to cell shrinkage.
What is the difference in chloride concentration inside and outside the cell?
The chloride concentration is higher outside the cell than inside the cell.
