Assume a living cell with 0.9 %( / ) of glucose solution (aqueous). This cell is immersed in another solution having equal mole fraction of glucose and water. (Consider the data upto first decimal place only) The cell will :

Step-by-step solution

Living cell =0.9 gm in 100 gm of solution % w / w =0.9 Solution is have equal moles of glucose and water =0.5 Weight of solution =0.5 180+0.5 18=99 gm % w / w 90 % Concentrated solution = Cell will shrink.
