Question

directions: answer the questions below by dragging the circles over the correct answers.
remember, water moves from high to low water concentration, and from low to high solute concentration

1. the cell has a

high low
concentration of water
compared to the solution.

1. the solution has a

high low
concentration of water
compared to the cell.

1. water will move

into out of
the cell

1. the solution is

hypertonic hypotonic
isotonic
compared to the cell

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze water concentration in cell vs solution

The cell has 70% water and the solution has 50% water. So the cell has a high concentration of water compared to the solution.

Step2: Analyze water concentration in solution vs cell

Since the cell has 70% water and the solution has 50% water, the solution has a low concentration of water compared to the cell.

Step3: Determine water movement

Water moves from high to low water concentration. Since the cell has higher water concentration than the solution, water will move out of the cell.

Step4: Determine solution type

A hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration (lower water concentration) than the cell. Since the solution has 50% water (cell has 70% water, so solution has higher solute), the solution is hypertonic.

Answer:

1. high; 24. low; 25. out of; 26. hypertonic
