Homework SourseA 300 mOsm cell is placed in a 550 mOsm solution The solute
A 300 mOsm cell is placed in a 550 mOsm solution. The solute particles inside the cell are different from those outside the cell. None of the solute particles inside the cell are permeant to the membrane. All of the solute particles in the surrounding solution are permeant to the membrane. Describe the surrounding solution.

| hyperosmotic and hypertonic |
| hyperosmotic and hypotonic |
| hypo-osmotic and hypotonic |
| hypo-osmotic and hypertonic |
Solution
The solution is hyperosmotic and hyper tonic because the solute particles from outside are permeant which means the concentration of solute is higher outside then the the inside that means the solution is hypertonic , and it is hyperosmotic because it is a condition in which the concentration of solute is greater than that of another solution.
