Tonicity Practice

This egg has shrunk, what type of solution was it placed in?

• hypotonic solution

• hypertonic solution

• isotonic solution

• active transport

What is the Movement of WATER IN and OUT of the cell membrane?

• Diffusion

• Osmosis

• Hypertonic

• My 3g is slowww

An ISOTONIC solution has a(n) ______________ concentration of solute (dissolved stuff) than inside the cell.

• lower

• equal

• higher

• Hypertonic

• Isotonic

• Hypotonic

• Hypertonic

• Isotonic

• Hypotonic

• Isotonic

• Hypotonic

What is an isotonic solution?

• When solutions are in equilibrium 

• When the solution has more solute 

• When the solution has less solute 

• Has a greater pressure 

An animal cell placed in a hypertonic (salty) solution will

• Shrink (get smaller)

• Swell (get bigger)

• Stay the same 

Water will move INTO a cell in a(n) _______ solution

• Hypertonic

• Hypotonic

• Isotonic

• Gravy

In the given scenario what will happen?  An egg is placed in pure water for 48 hours.

• The egg will gain water and swell.

• Water will move in and out of the cell equally, and the cell with neither shrink nor swell.

• The egg will lose water and shrink.
