Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solutes (such as salts or sugars) and a higher concentration of water than a hypertonic solution. This means that in a hypotonic solution, there is a higher potential for water to move into cells or other areas with a higher solute concentration in order to achieve balance or equilibrium.

A Hypotonic Solution Has a Lower Concentration of Solutes and a Higher
