Answer 0

- happens when you put a cell is a hypertonic solution

Question 1

What is osmosis

Answer 1

• diffusion of water

- high to low concentration of water

Question 2

Cytolysis

Answer 2

• Destruction of the cell

- happens when you put a cell in a hypotonic solution

Question 3

If you stick a cell in a solution of pure water

Answer 3

• The pure water is hypotonic
• water flows in the cell by diffusion
• the cell will burst
• cytolysis

Question 4

If you put a cell in a solution full of solutes (a hypertonic solution)

Answer 4

• water diffuses out of the cell
• cell will shrink and lose its cytoplasm
• plasmolysis

Question 5
