Question

Three cells each contain a 98% water wash were soaked in different solutions cell number one is so funny solution containing 100% water so two is sold in a solution containing 98% water so three is soap in a solution containing 80% water explain where water would move because of osmosis occurring within the cell use the vocabulary words to describe each solution

Answer 1

Answer: Cell number one is an hypotonic solution, cell number two is an isotonic solution, and cell three is an hypertonic solution.

Explanation:

Cell number one which is a 98% water content is added the 100% water solution, water moves from low to high concentration. Therefore, the water moves from the solution into the cell, which is hypotonic.

Cell number two which is a 98% water content added with a 98% water solution. These two solutions are equal to one another, so the water does not move. This is isotonic.

Cell number three which is a 98% water content added with a 80% water solution. Water moves from high to low concentrations, so water moves from the cell to the solution. The water leaves the cell, which is an hypertonic.
