Cellular Transport 🤘🏻 Flashcards
There is a LOWER concentration of solute molecules OUTSIDE of the cell than inside the cell.
Hypotonic solution
There is the SAME concentration of solute molecules outside the cell as inside
Isotonic solution
The SWELLING AND BURSTING of animal cells when water enters happens when a cell is placed in a
Hypotonic solution
What organelle {that plants have and animals don’t} keeps plant cells from bursting in this condition?
Cell Wall
The SHRINKING of plant cells when water leaves so the cell membrane pulls away from the cell wall or shrinking of animal cells happens when a plant cell is placed in a
Hypertonic solution
Cells stay the same size when placed in a ________ solution because of the amount of water leaving the cell is the same as the amount of water entering.
