the media in which the cells are grown should have almost the same osmolality as inside the cell so as the omolalitical active particles are balanced in and outside the cell. if either is more the due to osmosis the omolalitical active particles will move in or outside cell and thereby causing damage to the cell either shrinking the cell or expandiong it.

Who stated plant cells produce plant cells and animal cells produce animal cells?
i think that it was virchow? we learned it in science earlier this year!
What two basic types of cells make up all living things?
The two basic types of cells , I belive, are plant and animal cells.
What cell organelles are found in animal cells but not in plant cells?
The centrioles are the cell organelle that are found in animal cells but not in plant cells.
What are the 2 main differences between animal and plant cells?
plant cells have a cell wall surrounding the cell membrane for protection and rigidity, animal cells don't have a cell wall. plant cells have larger vacuoles than animal cells. animal cells have centrioles to aid in cell division, plant cells do not. plant cells have chloroplasts (used in photosynthesis) and chlorophyll (the green pigment), animal cells do not have either of those.
What are the main differences between plant cells and animal cells?
the plant cell is round and the animal cell is squered
What can happen to animal cells when placed in a hypotonic solution explain?
What can happen to animal cells when placed in a hypotonic solution explain
What type of solution does animal cells prefer?
To mama
What are the effects of hypertonic solutions on living cells?
Hypertonic solutions are solutions that have a higher concentration than that of its immediate environment. The effects of hypertonic solutions on living cells is crenation in animal cells and plasmolysis in plant cells.
What type of solution do animal cells prefer?
Animal cells prefer an isotonic solution, where the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell are equal. This allows for the proper balance of water and nutrients to be maintained within the cell, promoting normal function and preventing dehydration or swelling.
What correctly describes the normal tonicity conditions for typical plant and animal cells?
Typical plant cells have a tonicity that is hypotonic to their environment, meaning they have a higher solute concentration than the surrounding environment. In contrast, typical animal cells have a tonicity that is isotonic to their environment, meaning their internal and external solute concentrations are balanced.
What happens to both plant and animal cells when they are placed into a solution that is hypotonic?
Both types of cells will have endo-osmosis and will become turgid
Where the animal cells save the water?
Animal cells save water in their cytoplasm, where water is stored in the form of a solution. Additionally, animal cells regulate their water content through mechanisms such as osmosis, which helps maintain proper hydration levels within the cell.
What are the effects of osmosis on red blood cells?
If red blood cells are in a hypertonic solution, water will move out of the cells causing them to shrink and possibly become dehydrated. Conversely, if red blood cells are in a hypotonic solution, water will move into the cells causing them to swell and potentially burst, a process known as hemolysis. In an isotonic solution, red blood cells maintain their normal shape and size.
What are the 3 most common differences between plant and animal cells?
Three common differences between plant and animal cells are: Plant cells have a cell wall made of cellulose, while animal cells do not. Plant cells have chloroplasts for photosynthesis, while animal cells do not. Plant cells usually have a large central vacuole, while animal cells have smaller vacuoles or potentially none at all.
What happens to a cell plant cell or animal cell when placed in following solution a hypotonic solution b isotonic solution c hypertonic solution?
When placed in an isotonic solution (i.e. a solution where the concentration of water molecules is roughly equal to the that within cells), there is equal diffusion of water into and out of the cells. Therefore, the cells find this environment suitable. In a hypotonic solution (i.e. a solution where the concentration of water molecules is much more than that within cells) water diffuses into cells as a result of which the cells swell. Excessive swelling causes the cells to burst, a phenomenon called cell lysis In a hypertonic solution (i.e. a solution where the concentration of water molecules is lesser than that within cells) water moved out from within cells to the surrounding medium. As a result of this, cells shrink.
What solution does crenation occur in?
Crenation occurs in a hypertonic solution, where the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside, causing water to leave the cell, leading to shrinkage and deformation of the cell.
If a plant cell is put into a concentrated sugar solution what will happen?
Those animal cells placed in pure water will swell but plant cells are restricted by their cells walls. If place in a solution high in sugar (or even salt), both cells will shrink in a process called crenation (shriveling).
