Osmosis Jones

Which cell is in a hypertonic environment?

• A

• B

• C

The cell is 99% water. The surrounding is salty. Where will the water go?

• Into the cell

• Out of the cell

• Equally in & out 

Which way will the water molecules move during osmosis?

• Out of the cell, so the cell shrinks.

• Out of the cell, so the cell swells.

• Into the cell, so the cell shrinks.

• Into the cell, so the cell swells.

The cell below is shrinking. It can be concluded that the concentration of water is:

• higher inside the cell than outside the cell

• lower inside the cell than outside the cell

• the same inside and outside the cell

What happens when cells have too much of any substance?

• They gather excess molecules and dissolve them

• The substance changes how reactions happen in a cell, which can lead to cell death

• They start a feedback loop to balance the effect of the substance

• They gather excess molecules and remove them from the cell

• They run for political office.
