Correct vs Incorrect: What Happens to Cells in Different Solutions

Correct vs Incorrect: What Happens to Cells in Different Solutions

The map in words

  • Cell Placed in Solution
    • Type of Solution?
      • Hypotonic Very Dilute: Water enters cell by osmosis
        • Cell Type?
          • Plant Cell has cell wall: Cell becomes Turgid - swells but does NOT burst
          • Animal Cell no cell wall: Cell swells and may BURST - Cytolysis
      • Isotonic Same concentration: No net water movement
        • Cell stays same size - No change
      • Hypertonic Concentrated: Water leaves cell by osmosis
        • Cell Type?
          • Plant Cell: PLASMOLYSIS - contents shrink from cell wall
          • Animal Cell: Cell SHRINKS - Crenation
