Question

distinguish between animal and plant cells for each type of solution
plant\tanimal
isotonic
hypotonic
hypertonic

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In isotonic solutions, plant and animal cells maintain their normal shape as there is no net water movement. In hypotonic solutions, plant cells become turgid due to the rigid cell - wall preventing excessive swelling, while animal cells may burst as they lack a cell - wall. In hypertonic solutions, plant cells plasmolyze (shrink away from the cell - wall) and animal cells shrink.
