part two: answer the questions below.
1. inside a cell it is 97% water and 3% salt. on the outside of the cell it is 70% water and 30% salt. in the space below, create a diagram to represent this.

a. will water move into or out of the cell?
b. add an arrow on your picture above to show this.
c. will the cell shrink (get smaller) or will it swell (get bigger)?
d. is the solution outside of the cell hypertonic or hypotonic?
2. inside a cell it is 85% water and 15% salt. on the outside of the cell it is 95% water and 5% salt. in the space below, create a diagram to represent this.

a. will water move into or out of the cell?
b. add an arrow on your picture above to show this.
c. will the cell shrink (get smaller) or will it swell (get bigger)?
d. is the solution outside of the cell hypertonic or hypotonic?
3. think of the produce (fruit and vegetable) section of the grocery store. have you ever noticed that some produce, particular leafy green ones, are misted with water every few minutes? below is a diagram of plant cells in these vegetables. first, draw several water molecules (h₂o) around the plant cells. then, add arrows to show the direction of osmosis. finally, use the lines provided to explain why the grocery store mists the produce. be sure to use the terms osmosis, hypotonic, and hypertonic.

# Brief Explanations:
1.
    - a. Water moves out of the cell. Because the water concentration inside the cell ($97\%$) is higher than outside ($70\%$), and water moves from high - concentration to low - concentration areas by osmosis.
    - c. The cell will shrink. As water moves out, the cell loses volume.
    - d. The outside solution is hypertonic. A hypertonic solution has a higher solute (salt) concentration ( $30\%$ outside vs $3\%$ inside) compared to the inside of the cell.
2.
    - a. Water moves into the cell. Since the water concentration outside the cell ($95\%$) is higher than inside ($85\%$), water moves in by osmosis.
    - c. The cell will swell. As water enters, the cell gains volume.
    - d. The outside solution is hypotonic. A hypotonic solution has a lower solute (salt) concentration ( $5\%$ outside vs $15\%$ inside) compared to the inside of the cell.
3. When the grocery store mists the produce, the water outside the plant cells is a hypotonic solution (lower solute concentration in the mist water compared to the inside of the plant cells). By osmosis (the movement of water across a semi - permeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration (hypotonic) to a region of high solute concentration (hypertonic) ), water moves into the plant cells. This helps the plant cells stay turgid (firm), which keeps the produce looking fresh.

# Answer:
1.
    - a. Water moves out of the cell.
    - c. The cell will shrink.
    - d. The outside solution is hypertonic.
2.
    - a. Water moves into the cell.
    - c. The cell will swell.
    - d. The outside solution is hypotonic.
3. When misted, the water outside plant cells is hypotonic. By osmosis, water moves into plant cells (which are hypertonic relative to the mist water). This keeps cells turgid and produce fresh.
