Acell containing 5% salt is placed into a glass of water with 20% salt. which direction will water flow, assuming salt is too big to pass through the cell membrane?

question options:

a: water will diffuse from inside to the outside of the cell

b: water will diffuse from outside to the inside of the cell

c: water will stay where it is

The correct answer is A water will diffuse from inside to outside of the cell

Explanation:

According to the given question a cell containing 5% salt solution is placed into a glass of water with 20% salt solution.That means the salt solution present in the glass is hypertonic to the salt solution present inside the cell.

   As the cell is kept or placed in a hypertonic solution water will diffuse from inside to the outside of the cell.

her next move would be to use agarose gel electrophoresis to separate the dna molecules of varying length and create a dna fingerprint.
