When two solutions have different osmolarity, the solution with lower osmolarity is called hypoosmotic

<h3>What is osmolarity? </h3>

The term osmolarity defines the total concentration of solute particles present in a particular volume of solution.

If a solution has a high amount of solute particles in one litre of solution, this solution is termed to have high osmolarity. If a solution has a low amount of solute particles per litre of solution, it is said to have low osmolarity.

When comparing two solutions of different osmolarities, the solution with higher osmolarity will be called hypertonic and the solution with lower osmolarity is called hypotonic.

Therefore, the term used to describe a solution of lower osmolarity compared to a solution of higher osmolarity is hypotonic.

Why is frog egg laid in long gelatin fluid
Naya [18.7K]
Although amphibious frogs live on land and in water, they must lay their eggs in water or the eggs will dry up, effectively killing the offspring inside. Frog eggs are covered with a glycoprotein, which helps keep the eggs moist. This glycoprotein has to keep in contact with a source of moisture, such as water.
