9.

Concentration is lower in the solution outside the cell than inside, meaning there is more water on the outside the cell than inside. The cell will swell and possibly burst.

a)

Hypertonic Solution

b)

Hypotonic Solution

c)

Isotonic Solution

10.

a)

Hypertonic Solution

b)

Hypotonic Solution

c)

Isotonic Solution

11.

Concentration is the same in the solution outside the cell as inside, meaning there are equal amount of water on each side of the cell membrane. Water will not move because it is at equilibrium.

a)

Hypertonic Solution

b)

Hypotonic Solution

c)

Isotonic Solution
