Question
a cell is said to be in which state when it has an equal movement of molecules into and out of the cell? enter the answer
In biology, when the movement of molecules (like in diffusion or osmosis) into a cell is equal to the movement out of the cell, the cell is in a state of equilibrium, specifically "dynamic equilibrium" for processes like diffusion across the cell membrane. This state is often associated with isotonic conditions for osmosis, but the key term for equal movement in and out is equilibrium (or more precisely, dynamic equilibrium as the molecules are still moving but at equal rates).
