Question

6. If an animal cell is place in a Hypertonic solution it will shrivel. 7. cells in isotonic solutions have amounts of water moving in and out of the cell. 8. Animal cells 9. If a plant cell is placed in an isotonic solution it will take up and release water at an 10. water in hypertonic solutions causing them to equal rate, because water leaves the cell than is entering cells in hypotonic solutions have a high pressure which causes the cells to expand. In this scenario there is water entering the cell than leaving pulls away from the cell wall when plant cells are place in a water 11. The solution. In this scenario there is leaving the cell than is entering 12. What is turgor pressure? The pressure exerted by water inside the cell against the cell wall. 13. How does turgor pressure affect a plant cell? The turgor pressure provided by osmosis in a hypotonic solution pushes outward on the plant cell wall, which is just what the plant cell needs to maintain its structure.

Explanation / Answer

7. Isotonic cells in isotonic solutions have same amount of water moving in and out of the cell.

8. Animal cells less water in hypertonic solutions causing them to shrink.

9. If a plant cell is placed in an isotonic solution, it will take up and release water at an equal rate, because same water leaves the cell than in entering.

10. Hypertonic cells in hypotonic solutions have a high osmotic pressure which causes the cells to expand. In this scenario, there is more water entering the cell than leaving.
