Question

Differentiate icotonic and Hypertonic solution?​

Answer 1

If a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell, and the cell will shrink. In an isotonic environment, there is no net water movement, so there is no change in the size of the cell. When a cell is placed in a hypotonic environment, water will enter the cell, and the cell will swell.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The main difference between isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions is that isotonic solutions are solutions having equal osmotic pressures while hypotonic solutions are solutions having a lower osmotic pressure and hypertonic solutions are solutions with a high osmotic pressure.
