Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In hypotonic conditions, the concentration of solutes is higher inside the cell than outside, causing water to rush into the cell. The cell wall helps prevent the cell from bursting by providing structural support and resistance to the influx of water. In hypertonic conditions, the concentration of solutes is higher outside the cell, causing water to leave the cell and potentially causing it to shrink. In isotonic conditions, the concentration of solutes is equal inside and outside the cell, resulting in no net movement of water. Mesotonic conditions are not a recognized term in biology.
