Hypertonic Solution?

Question

What happens to a plant cells placed in a hypertonic solution? Name this process.

Answer 1

This process is plasmolysis. More water goes out of the cell than the amount of water that goes into the cell. The volume of liquid inside the cell decreases and the cytoplasm and plasma membrane pull away from the cell wall.

Answer 2

Osmosis is diffusion of water where the direction of movement is determined by total difference in solute concentration. Diffusion is the movement of something down its concentration gradient (higher concentration to lower concentration).

Answer 3

the cell membrane in the plant cell shriveled or shrink it is diffusion through a membrane

Answer 4

The beaker answer is greater centred that the cellular, so it may be referred to as hypertonic to the cellular. bear in mind that the words hypertonic and hypotonic are comparisons, so which you commonly would desire to state what you're evaluating it to.
