question 47
what type of bacterial activity is represented in the diagram?
a hypotonic conditions
b isotonic conditions
c hypertonic conditions
d generation time
In isotonic conditions, the concentration of solutes is the same inside and outside the cell. There is no net movement of water. In the diagram, there is no net movement of water molecules (indicated by the arrows showing balance). In hypotonic conditions, water would move into the cell (cell would swell). In hypertonic conditions, water would move out of the cell (cell would shrink). Generation time is related to the time it takes for bacteria to reproduce, which is not depicted here.
