Question

Describe two ways in which the cell in the strong sugar solution is different from the cell in distilled water.

Answer 1

If a living cell was placed in a sugar solution, it would cause outward osmosis to occur. ... The solution outside the cell would be hypotonic (containing fewer solute molecules than inside the cell). Water will move into the cell by inward osmosis and the cell would then swell.
