Question

1. in diagram 3, which term describes the solution outside of the cell? * 1 point

hypertonic
hypotonic
isotonic

1. in diagram 3, what direction will water move? * 1 point

into the cell
out of the cell
equally in both directions

Explanation:

• For question 42: A hypotonic solution has a lower solute concentration (higher water concentration) compared to the inside of the cell. Here, the outside has 100% water (0% solute) and the cell has 85% water (15% solute).
• For question 43: Water moves from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration. Since the outside has a higher water concentration (100% vs 85% inside the cell), water will move into the cell.

Answer:

1. Hypotonic
2. into the cell
