Answer:
1) Hypotonic solution. (Swell)
2) Hypotonic solution.
3) Isotonic solution.
4) Hypertonic solution.
5) Isotonic solution.
6) Hypertonic solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
4 TERMS:
Hypotonic solutions:
Noting a solution of lower osmotic pressure than another solution with which it is compared (opposed to hypertonic).
Isotonic solutions:
Noting or pertaining to solutions characterized by equal osmotic pressure.
Hypertonic solutions:
Noting a solution of higher osmotic pressure than another solution with which it is compared (opposed to hypotonic).
Osmosis:
The tendency of a fluid, usually water, to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a solution where the solvent concentration is higher, thus equalizing the concentrations of material on either side of the membrane.
-----------------------------------------------
Description A:
The concentration of dissolved substances outside the cell is lower than the inside the cell. (Hypotonic)
Description B:
When a cell is placed in this solution, water will enter the cell by osmosis -- resulting in turgor pressure. (Hypotonic)
Description C:
The concentration of dissolved substances outside the cell is the same as the concentration inside the cell. (Isotonic)
Description D:
The concentration of dissolved substances outside the cell is higher than the concentration inside the cell. (Hypertonic)
Description E:
When injected into the body, it will not cause cellular damage because no osmosis occurs. (Isotonic)
Description F:
Putting a plant cell in this type of solution will result in a loss of water, and |drop in turgor pressure (or plasmolysis)|, which will cause the plant to wilt. (Hypertonic)
---------------------------------------------------------------
Quick def.: Plasmolysis is the contraction of the protoplasm in a living cell when water is removed by exosmosis. Exosmosis is the flow of a substance from an area of greater concentration to one of lower concentration (opposed to endosmosis). Or it can be applied to osmosis toward the outside of a cell or vessel.
