Question

Three cells are placed in three solutions of different concentrations. Determine the concentration of the solutions based on the predominant
movement of water molecules through the cells.
isotonic
hypertonic
hypotonic
Solution 2
Solution 1
Solution 3

Answer 1

The three types of solutions and concentrations can be classified as:

• Solution 1: Hypertonic
• Solution 2: Hypotonic
• Solution 3: Isotonic

What is the concentration of a solution?

The concentration of a solution must be expressed in quantitative units. So-called concentration units are used, which are quantitative measures of the affinity of solute that dissolves. The relative amount of a substance is known as the concentration and is expressed in different units.

In this case we can classify these solutions as :

• Hypertonic solution: has higher osmotic pressure and solute concentration.
• Hypotonic solution: has lower osmotic pressure and solute concentration.
• Isotonic solution: the solute concentration and osmotic pressure are equal, thus reaching equilibrium.
