Question

question 8
a hypertonic solution will cause _____.
water to evaporate
water to leave the cell
water to equally flow back and forth across the cell membrane
water to enter the cell

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In osmosis, water moves from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. A hypertonic solution has a higher solute - concentration outside the cell compared to inside the cell. So, water will move out of the cell to balance the solute concentrations.

Answer:

water to leave the cell
