Question

1. what is the % of glucose outside the cell? 80% 2. what is the % of water outside the cell? 20% 3. what is the % of water inside the cell? 4. will osmosis occur? 5. if so, which way will water move (into or out of the cell)? 6. will the cell swell or shrink? 7. the cell is in what type of solution (hypertonic, hypotonic, isotonic)? (image shows a beaker with 80% glucose and a cell with 10% glucose)

Explanation:

Question 3:

Step1: Recall total percentage in cell

The total percentage of substances inside the cell should be 100%. Given glucose inside is 10%, so water percentage = 100% - 10% = 90%.

Osmosis occurs when there's a water concentration gradient. Outside water is 20%, inside is 90% (from Q3), so a gradient exists.

Water moves from high concentration (inside cell, 90% water) to low concentration (outside cell, 20% water), so out of the cell.

Answer:

90%
