At the end of an osmosis lab, you produce a graph that shows the % change in mass over time. Match each data set with the tonicity. +10 0 -10 A B C D A. hypotonic B. isotonic C. hypertonic D. hypertonic box B box A box C box D

Step 1
- **Hypotonic**: A solution with a lower concentration of solutes compared to the cell, causing water to enter the cell, increasing its mass. - **Isotonic**: A solution with the same concentration of solutes as the cell, resulting in no net change in mass. - Show more…

Five dialysis bags constructed of a membrane, which is permeable to water and impermeable to sucrose, were filled with various concentrations of sucrose and then placed in separate beakers containing an initial concentration of 0.6 M sucrose solution. At 10-minute intervals, the bags were massed (weighed), and the percentage change in mass of each bag was graphed.

When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, a. solute exits the cell to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane. b. water exits the cell toward the area of lower solute concentration. c. water enters the cell toward the area of higher solute concentration. d. there is no net movement of water or solutes.
