Answered by admin @
Hypotonic Solution: A solution that has less concentration of solute outside the cell than inside the cell.
Isotonic solution: A solution that has equal concentration of salt and water(solvent) outside and inside the cell.
Hypertonic Solution: A solution that has greater concentration of solute outside the cell than inside the cell.
When a cell is placed in:
a. Hypotonic Solution: The cell will swell because the water from outside the cell will come inside the cell.
b. Isotonic Solution: No change will occur.
c. Hypertonic Solution: The cell will shrink because the cell will lose water.
