Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a solution is hypertonic, it means that it has a higher solute concentration compared to another solution. Therefore, molecules (usually water) would move out of a cell if the cell is in a hypertonic solution, as water moves from areas of lower solute concentration to areas of higher solute concentration to achieve equilibrium.
