Question

1. in diagram 1, which term describes the solution outside of the cell? * 1 point

hypertonic
hypotonic
isotonic

1. in diagram 1, what direction will water move? * 1 point

into the cell
out of the cell
equally in both directions

Explanation:

• For question 36: A hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration compared to the inside of the cell. Here, the outside solution has 6% solute and the cell has 3% solute. So, the outside solution is hypertonic.
• For question 37: In osmosis, water moves from an area of lower solute concentration (higher water concentration) to an area of higher solute concentration (lower water concentration). The cell has a lower solute concentration (higher water concentration as 97% water) compared to the outside (94% water). So, water will move out of the cell.

Answer:

1. Hypertonic
2. Out of the cell
