An Animal Cell Placed In A Hypertonic Solution Will. If an animal cell is. An animal cell placed in a hypertonic solution will shrink in a process called crenation.
If an animal cell is. In science, it’s called a hypertonic solution. Compare and contrast isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic solutions.
Cell burts because water diffuses into cell.
A hypertonic solution has more osmotic pressure (fewer water molecules) than the adjacent solution or cellular contents. Its na/k' pump will work to keep the cell from bursting. Cells in isotonic solutions have amounts of water moving in and out of the cell. Water is stored in the vacuole causing it to expand and exert pressure on the cell wall.
