Differentiate between : Hypertonic and hypotonic solutions

Explain the following: Mammals can eliminate hypotonic and hypertonic urine according to body needs.

Define Hypotonic solution.

Maximum water potential is present in (a) Hypotonic solution (b) Hypertonic solution (c) Isotonic solution (d) Pure water

Assertion : Shrinkage of the protoplast of a cell occurs under the influence of hypertonic solution. Reason : Hypertonic solution causes plasmolysis.

Select the correct answer out of the four available choices given under question : The space between the cell wall and plasma membrane in plasmolysed cell is filled with: (i) isotonic solution (ii) hypotonic solution (iii) hypertonic solution (iv) water

Give technical terms for the following: Movement of water molecules across the cell membrane from hypertonic to hypotonic solution.

Statement 1: Plasmolysis is bursting of cell membrane when a cell is kept in a hypertonic solution. Statement 2: Hypertonic solution causes endosmosis.
