In plants, a hypotonic solution is NOT ____.
In plants, a hypotonic solution is NOT ____.
Options
- Aa weak solution
- Ba strong solvent
- Cwith low osmotic concentration
- Dwith high osmotic concentration
Correct answer
D. with high osmotic concentration
Step-by-step solution
A hypotonic solution has a lower solute concentration compared to the cell sap. It is a dilute or weak solution, meaning it has a high water potential (strong solvent) and a low osmotic concentration.
A solution with a high osmotic concentration is a hypertonic solution, not a hypotonic solution. Therefore, a hypotonic solution is NOT with high osmotic concentration.
Answer: with high osmotic concentration
A solution with a high osmotic concentration is a hypertonic solution, not a hypotonic solution. Therefore, a hypotonic solution is NOT with high osmotic concentration.
Answer: with high osmotic concentration
