The salt in the glass of saltwater is considered the

• solvent
• solution 
• pepper
• solute

In an isotonic solution which way will the water flow

• it will not flow at all

• it will flow into the cell

• it will flow both ways at equal rates

• out of the cell

A solution outside of a cell that contains a higher water concentration than the cytoplasm of a cell is called:

• solution

• hypertonic

• hypotonic

• isotonic

The solution surrounding the cell in Diagram B, would be defined as:
