If an animal cell is placed in hypertonic solution what happens to the cell

Biology

Soloha48 [4]3 years ago

<span>A solution is hypertonic to a cell if it has a higher solute (dissolved substance) concentration than the cell does. As a result, it also has a lower concentration of water than the cell does. Cell membranes and plant cell walls are semipermeable barriers, which means that certain molecules can diffuse through them, while other molecules can not.</span>

The animal cell would shrink, because there is more solute outside of the cell. That would cause the water within the cell to go outside of the cell.

Why is innate host resistance a type of nonspecific immune response?.
ASHA 777 [7]

These defenses are described as nonspecific because they do not target any specific pathogen; rather, they defend against a wide range of potential pathogens.

<h3>Is innate immunity nonspecific resistance?</h3>

The innate immune system provides this kind of nonspecific protection through a number of defense mechanisms, which include physical barriers such as the skin, chemical barriers such as antimicrobial proteins that harm or destroy invaders, and cells that attack foreign cells and body cells harbouring infectious agents.

Thus,  they do not target any specific pathogen; rather, they defend against a wide range of potential pathogens.
