Osmosis Worksheet

Master osmosis! Solve problems on water movement, cell tonicity, and effects on cells.

A. Calculate the percentage of water in beaker and in the cell.B. Determine if the solutions in the beaker and the cell are hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic. 80 99 hypertonic hypotonic Which way will the water diffuse? Into the cell Out of the cell Into and out of the cell at equal rates. It will not move. What will happen to this cell? It will swell. Crenation Turgor pressure increases. Plasmolysis The cell remains unchanged. A. Calculate the percentage of water in beaker and in the cell.B.

For each picture of cells below, determine if the solution it is in is hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic. A. HypertonicB. IsotonicC. HypotonicD. HypertonicE. IsotonicF. Hypotonic Watch the video, then answer the questions that follow. After watching the video, use what you learned to fill in the blank spaces. Click in the clank spaces to select your answer. When you drink too much water, your kidneys cannot process the water and it ends up in you blood stream. The excess water in your blood stream makes your blood stream hypotonicand the cell hypertonic, which causes the water to move intothe cell. Your cells will swell, which is a problem in the brain because the cells can't expand do to the skull. This can cause seizures and eventually death.
