Question
an example of a hypertonic solution is corn syrup.
hypotonic
hypo means \below\, as in \below strength.\
in a hypotonic solution, the concentration of solutes in the solution is lower than within the cell. water will move into the cell trying to create equilibrium.
an example of a hypotonic solution is fresh water.
which solution has a solute concentration lower than that inside the cell?
hypotonic
isotonic
hypertonic
From the provided text, a hypotonic solution is defined as having a solute concentration lower than that inside the cell (since "hypo" means below, and in a hypotonic solution, solute concentration in the solution is lower than within the cell). Isotonic would have equal concentration, and hypertonic would have higher concentration than the cell. So the correct option is the one labeled "hypotonic".
