What would happen if a cell was placed in a hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic solution?

Respuesta :

In a hypertonic solution, a cell would shrink, the water flowing out of it to reach osmotic equilibrium  

In an isotonic solution, a cell would remain the same, the cell and the solution around it already in osmotic equilibrium 

In a hypotonic solution, a cell would grow, the water flowing into it to reach osmotic equilibrium
