A) If the potato cells were hypotonic to the surrounding solution, the surrounding solution itself would be what to the potato cells (hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic)? B) Were the potato cells submerged in water with no salt hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic to the surrounding environment? C) Were the potato cells submerged in 5 g/100mL salt solution hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic to the surrounding environment? D) Look at your graph. At approximately what concentration of salt solution would the potato cells have likely been isotonic with the surrounding solution?
