Question
a hypotonic solution has a ____________________ solute concentration when compared to another solution. higher lower equal
Brief Explanations
A hypotonic solution has a lower solute concentration compared to another solution. This is based on the definition of tonicity in biology. In a hypotonic environment, water will move into a cell (if it is a living cell) by osmosis because the solute concentration outside (in the hypotonic solution) is lower than inside the cell.
