Question
- how are hyper- and hypotonic solutions different? hypertonic solutions have a greater amount of solutes hypotonic solutions have a greater amount of solutes
Brief Explanations
Tonicity is related to solute - concentration. Hypertonic solutions have a higher solute concentration compared to another solution (e.g., a cell's interior), while hypotonic solutions have a lower solute concentration.
