A hypotonic solution would cause a cell to shiver because water will move into the cell, causing it to swell and potentially burst due to osmotic pressure. On the other hand, a hypertonic solution would cause the cell to shrink or shrivel because water will move out of the cell, causing it to lose water and decrease in size.
Water will pass from the hypotonic solution to the hypertonic solution through the osmotic membrane in order to balance the concentration of solutes on both sides. This will cause the hypertonic solution to increase in volume, while the hypotonic solution will decrease in volume. Ultimately, the solution will reach an equilibrium point where the concentration of solutes is the same on both sides of the membrane.
You can observe osmosis in plant cells by placing a plant cell in a hypertonic or hypotonic solution and observing any changes in cell size and shape due to the movement of water. Hypertonic solution will cause cell to shrink (plasmolysis) and hypotonic solution will cause cell to swell. You can use a microscope to observe these changes in plant cells during osmosis.
Hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration compared to a hypotonic solution. In a hypertonic solution, water will move out of the cell, causing it to shrink, while in a hypotonic solution, water will move into the cell, causing it to swell.
In an isotonic solution, the plant cell maintains its normal shape as the water concentration inside and outside the cell is equal. In a hypotonic solution, the cell will swell as water moves in due to the higher concentration of solutes inside the cell. In a hypertonic solution, the cell will shrink as water moves out of the cell to balance the higher concentration of solutes outside the cell.
A hypotonic solution with low osmolarity compared to the inside of red blood cells can cause hemolysis. This leads to water moving into the cells, causing them to swell and burst due to the pressure exerted by the excess water.

A hypersonic solution refers to a solution that has a higher concentration of solute compared to another solution. On the other hand, a hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solute compared to another solution. Hypertonic solutions will cause water to flow out of a cell, while hypotonic solutions will cause water to flow into a cell.
If a cell is placed into a hypotonic solution, the water will flow into the cell causing it to swell and possibly lyse. If a cell is placed into a hypertonic solution, the water will flow out of the cell causing it to crenate. So hemolysis occurs when the red blood cells lyse.

In an isotonic solution, the plant cell maintains its normal shape as the water concentration inside and outside the cell is equal. In a hypotonic solution, the cell will swell as water moves in due to the higher concentration of solutes inside the cell. In a hypertonic solution, the cell will shrink as water moves out of the cell to balance the higher concentration of solutes outside the cell.
Cells can exist in solutions that are isotonic (same concentration as cell), hypertonic (higher concentration than cell), or hypotonic (lower concentration than cell). In an isotonic solution, there is no net movement of water. In a hypertonic solution, water leaves the cell, causing it to shrink. In a hypotonic solution, water enters the cell, causing it to swell or burst.

Hypertonic solutions cause cells to lose water.
hypertonic :)
A 0.80% NaCl solution would be considered isotonic, meaning it has the same concentration of solutes as inside the cell and would not cause water to move in or out of the cell.
The word 'dilute' is an inexact term. Hypotonic (less solute) and hypertonic (more solute) and isotonic (the same amount) are relative terms. What they mean is that a solution will either have less, more, or the same concentration of a given solute than the reference substance. It is important in cells because a hypertonic solution (such as salt water) will try to pull free water out of the cell, where the concentration of salt is less. A hypotonic solution will cause water to soak into the cells. Either situation may be undesirable. For osmosis, water will flow across a semipermeable membrane in the direction of the pressure gradient. It will always flow from the hypotonic solution into the hypertonic solution. Plants absorb water by creating a hypertonic state inside the root.
