Step 1
This statement is true. Water will move from a hypotonic solution (low osmolarity) to a hypertonic solution (high osmolarity) in order to equalize the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane. 26- Which liter solution of water would have the Show more…

QUESTION 22 39.1 Osmosis describes: the movement of water from an area of lower water concentration to an area of higher water concentration across a selectively permeable membrane. the movement of water from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration across a selectively permeable membrane. the movement of solutes from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration across a selectively permeable membrane. the movement of solutes from an area of higher solute concentration to an area of lower solute concentration across a selectively permeable membrane. QUESTION 23 39.1 Osmoregulation is defined as: the control of osmotic pressure through regulation of water and solute levels. the movement of water from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. the difference in solute concentration on the two sides of a selectively permeable membrane. the regulation of membrane permeability.

Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane. The term tonicity refers to the water concentration of a solution. The prefix iso means equal, the prefix hyper means high, and the prefix hypo means low. A hypertonic solution will have a higher concentration of solutes compared to another solution. A hypotonic solution will have a lower concentration of solutes compared to another solution. An isotonic solution will have an equal concentration of solutes compared to another solution. An animal cell placed in a hypertonic solution will shrink, also known as crenation. A plant cell placed in a hypertonic solution will become turgid. An animal cell placed in a hypotonic solution will swell, possibly lyse. A plant cell placed in a hypotonic solution will become dehydrated. Plant and animal cells placed in an isotonic solution will both stay normal size.
