Question
in which kind of solution is the concentration of solutes the same inside and outside of the cell?
- isotonic
- hypertonic
- hypotonic
- concentrated
Brief Explanations
In an isotonic solution, the solute concentration is equal inside and outside the cell. Hypertonic solutions have a higher solute - concentration outside the cell, hypotonic solutions have a lower solute - concentration outside the cell, and "concentrated" is a general term not specific to this context.
