Question

a student is working on an experimental study in which cells have an icf osmolarity of 200 mosm. these cells are then placed into a 250 mosm solution. what happens to cell volume under these conditions?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Under these conditions, the cell volume will increase as the environment becomes more dilute than the internal cell environment. This is because more water will move from the outside environment into the cell, causing the cell to swell.
