When discussing Osmosis we talked about three different types of solutions: Hypotonic, Isotonic, and Hypertonic. The following picture shows examples of what would happen to a cell placed in each type of solution. Please label the picture with the type of solution that would cause the results in each picture.(3 points)
Unfortunately, I cannot view or interact with pictures. However, I can describe the effects of each type of solution on a cell.
1. If a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, it means that the concentration of solutes outside the cell is lower than inside the cell. In this case, water will move into the cell, causing it to swell or potentially burst.
2. If a cell is placed in an isotonic solution, it means that the concentration of solutes outside the cell is equal to that inside the cell. In this scenario, water will move in and out of the cell in equal amounts, resulting in no net change in the size or shape of the cell.
3. If a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, it means that the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside the cell. In this case, water will move out of the cell, causing it to shrink or shrivel up.
Please let me know if there's anything else I can assist you with.
