Ok, say you have 5 bags filled (not completely, though) and the contents are:
#1-water
#2-diet cola
#3-regular cola
#4- NaCl
#5-gatorade
now say these bags were all placed in separate bowls that are filled with NaCl solution. Which bags would be in a hypotonic environment? what about hypertonic?

what's your reasoning?

#1-water hypertonic
#2-diet cola ???

not enough info. need to know how concentrated the NaCl solution is.
but my guess with what u wrote (assuming the environment= NaCl solution) & #4 is plain salt with no water-
hypertonic environment= water, gatorade
hypotonic environment= diet cola, reg cola, NaCl
