Cell Transport Practice

What does it mean if the cell is in an isotonic solution?

• The solute concentration outside the cell is equal to the solute concentration inside the cell

• The concentration of solute outside the cell is higher than inside the cell.

• The concentration of solute outside the cell is lower than inside the cell.

What does it mean if the cell is in a hypertonic solution?

• The solute concentration outside the cell is equal to the solute concentration inside the cell

• The concentration of solute outside the cell is lower than inside the cell.

• The concentration of solute outside the cell is higher than inside the cell.

What does it mean if the cell is in a hypotonic solution?

• The concentration of solute outside the cell is lower than inside the cell.

• The solute concentration outside the cell is equal to the solute concentration inside the cell

• The concentration of solute outside the cell is higher than inside the cell.
