Question
which type of solution contains higher than normal amounts of osmotically active solutes?
multiple choice
isotonic solution
hypertonic solution
pure water
equitonic solution
hypotonic solution
An isotonic solution has the same concentration of osmotically - active solutes as normal. Pure water has no solutes. There is no such thing as an equitonic solution. A hypotonic solution has lower solute concentration. A hypertonic solution has a higher concentration of osmotically - active solutes compared to normal.
