What happens to an animal cell in a hypertonic solution?

Biology
1 answer:
jarptica [38.1K]3 years ago
5 0

<span>The answer is that cell will shrink.</span>

<span>If you put an animal cell in a hypertonic solution means that concentration of the solutes is greater outside the cell, in the solution, than in the cell. Consequently,</span> the water concentration of the cell's cytoplasm is higher than that of the hypertonic solution. Since the aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the cell, the water will exit the cell. The cell will lose water and, consequently, will shrink in size.

Guyss plz help me i will give yall extra pointss
Komok [63]

Answer:

The water is transported to the top most leaves (and rest of its parts) of a tall tree by three actions:

1) root pressure (osmosis)

2) capillary action (adhesion)

3) evapotranspiration (cohesion)

Explanation:

The trees contain a series of interconnected tissues (xylem and phloem) that act as network for transport of water and nutrients throughout the tree. The root pressure and capillary action push the water, while the transpiration from the leaves pull the water. The root pressure is generated by osmotic movement of water from soil to the root tissues. The capillary action is caused due to adhesion of water molecules. However, root pressure and capillarity is thought to support only few meters of water column. The rest of the water transport (esp. in tall trees) is attributed to negative pressure generated by evaporation of water from leaves. This negative pressure creates a vacuum and pulls the water from the roots.

Hope this helps.
