Question

12. Explain the process of movement of water molecules when the cell is placed in Hypotonic
and hypertonic solutions. How will it impact the condition of the cells kept in both cases?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

in hypotonic solution the external solution is diluted as compared to sell anterior it has more water content while the water content is low inside the cell membrane chemically able it allowed access of water in both directions due to difference in concentration of water molecules there is net flow of water molecules in the cell which phenomena is called endosmosis the flow of water molecules into the cell this phenomena is called and reverse osmosis it cause swelling of cells the spelling animal cell but plant cell do not was to the parents of cell wall and in hypertonic solution external solution as well osmotic concentration as compared to that of the cell there is less concentration of water in the outside solution more water concentration is present inside the cell plasma membrane which is Semi permeable membrane allows movement of water both in to outside solution from the cell as well as out from outside. however , since more water is present I nside cell, more of it woll pass out.

hope it help u

add me in brainliest plzzzzzzzzzz

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

HYPOTONIC SOLUTION

1. If the medium surrounding the cell has higher water concentration then the cell will gain water by osmosis , Such a solution is called hypotonic solution.

2.The water molecules are free to pass across the cell membrane in both the directions but more water will come into the cell than will leave. Therefore, the cell swells up

HYPERTONIC SOLUTION

1. If the medium surrounding the cell has lower water concentration then the cell will loose water by osmosis ,  Such a solution is called hypertonic solution.

2. The more water will leave the cell than the amount of water enteringto it. Therefore, the cell will shrink.
