Question

how would plant cell and animals cell behave when placed in a hypotonic solution of sodium chloride solution. explain by giving reason​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hypotonic solution is a solution which, contains lesser solute concentration. If animal and plant cells are kept in a hypotonic solution then endosmosis will occur. Endosmosis is a process in which the water molecules move from outside of the cell of lower solute concentration to the inside of the cell of higher solute concentration through the cell membrane or cell wall. Due to endosmosis, both animal and plant cells will swell.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Answer. Explanation: When the plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution , it takes up water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting. ... While ,in the case of an animal cell, the cell will swell and ultimately burst unlike plant cells.
