Q
What is a solution
A
A substance which is dissolved in water
2
Q
Define Hypertonic
A
moving water out of the cell (High solute low water)
3
Q
Define isotonic
A
movement in and out of the cell equally - this is because the amount of solutes are the same both in and outside of the cell
4
Q
define hypotonic
A
moving water into the cell (low solute high solution)
5
Q
distinguish between Hypertonic, isotonic and hypotonic
A
Hypertonic : high solute - low solution - moves out of the cell
Isotonic : equal solute -solution - moves equally in and out
Hypotonic : low solute : high solution - moves into the cell
