Question

Explain the behavior of animal and plant cell in hypertonic as well as hypotonic solution.​

Answer 1

A Hypertonic solution is a solution, which contains higher solute concentration. If animal and plant cells are kept in hypertonic solution then exosmosis will occur. Exosmosis is a process in which the water molecules move from inside of the cell of lower solute concentration to the outside of the cell of higher solute concentration through the cell membrane. Due to exosmosis, both animal and plant cells will shrink.

Answer 2

if you place an animal or a plant cell in a hypertonic solution, the cell shrinks, because it loses water ( water moves from a higher concentration inside the cell to a lower concentration outside ). ... A single animal cell ( like a red blood cell) placed in a hypotonic solution will fill up with water and then burst.
