What can happen to animal cells when placed in a hypotonic solution? Explain

b) If you soak an animal cell that is permeable to both water and glucose in either 5.5% glucose or 0.9% NaCl (both isosmotic solutions), the cell exposed to 5.5% glucose will gain water, while the cell exposed to 0.9% NaCl will not gain water. Predict why this is the case.

What is the independent variable of the experiment?

Mark the flow of water with an arrow for cells that have been placed in solutions of differing tonicity. Indicate what will happen to a plant and animal cell under each of these conditions.

Explain (using the correct terminology and drawing an image) what happens to the cells in the following environments: A human blood cell (0.9% salt) is placed in a saltwater tank (27.5% salt). - A bacterial cell with 35% organic material in their cytoplasm is living in a tank filled with 35% sulfur. - A freshwater plant cell (75% water) is living in a pond that floods over.

Rebuild the cell above that is hypertonic to the solution outside.  By hitting the red button, add 20 solutes (green) to the inside of the cell and add 5 water (blue) to the inside of the cell.  Also, add 20 water (blue) to the outside of the cell and 5 solutes (green) to the outside of the cell.  Add blue gated channels to the membrane. Q: What happens to the water molecules in this situation? Q: Which of the above situations is closer to a living membrane system?

Can you assist me in answerig questions a, b, and c with the given data and graph provided, please?

You are viewing two samples of mammalian red blood cells (erythrocytes) under a microscope. One first sample is made up of cells with a typical round shape. Most of the cells in the second sample had burst open. •Describe the properties of the solution that was used to prepare the second sample. • Identify one type of solute that can move through simple diffusion and does not affect osmotic pressure or require a membrane protein to cross a plasma membrane.

Suppose that you have a splinter that is embedded so deep in your foot that you cannot remove it with tweezers. How could you use what you learned in this unit as a first-aid remedy in this situation? Select one: O A. Use active transport to your advantage to draw water into your foot. O B. Use osmosis to your advantage by placing your foot in a hypotonic solution. C. Use osmosis to your advantage by placing your foot in a hypertonic solution. D. Use an artificial concentration gradient to draw water into your foot. E. Use osmosis to your advantage by placing your foot in an isotonic solution.

Describe an additional experimental approach used to study the cytoskeleton in which the activity of cytoskeletal elements is affected in ways similar to those resulting from drug treatment.
