What will likely happen if an animal cell and
a plant cell are placed in a sugar solution
that has water concentration more than that of the animal
cell and the plant cell?

Answer:

Hypertonic solutions have less water ( and more solute such as salt or sugar ) than a cell. ... 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 ).

☆Osmosis:

》Movement of water molecules from its high volume to the where is amount is lower.

》More the concentrated any solution will be, higher will be its solute amount, and less will be the solvent(water).

In this water will flow towards this solution as here, its amount is lower.

☆Answer.

  • The question is saying, that outside solution has higher water concentration than the cells.
  • That means, the outer solution has more solute(sugar)amount and less water molecules that's why the water is concentrated as compared to cells
  • outer solution is hypertonic to cell inner environment.
  • So the water will flow outside the cells.
  • The process is also called Exosmosis.

But, animal cells and plant cells diifer:

  1. animal cells are surrounded by an extensible plasma membrane.
  2. while plants cells are surrounded by inextensible cell wall. So they don't directly get burst/collapse.

After putting the cells in sugar solution this will likely happen:-

  • Animal cells will get shrink/collapse due to constant flow of water outside the cells.
  • Plants cells have cell wall so at the starting, their size will remain same. Due to support of cell wall.
  • But if it is placed in the solution for very longer time, then its whole cytoplasm will get shrink at one side of the wall. The Process known as plasmolysis. And the afterwards the cell will collapse.
