A tissue sampler that is being used for a medical procedure is placed inside a saline solution. Unknown to the medical team, the saline solution is hypertonic. Deduce what will happen to the cells within the tissue sample

Water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the net movement of water from an area of low to high concentration of solutes through a semipermeable membrane. If none of the compartments contains solutes, then the water moves in either direction between the compartments. However, if we add a solute to one of the compartments, this will affect the probability of water molecules leaving that compartment and moving into the other compartment. The ability of water to move into or out of a cell is called tonicity. The tonicity of a solution is related to its osmolarity, which is the total concentration of all the solutes in the solution. A solution with low osmolarity has few solute particles per liter of solution, whereas a solution with high osmolarity has many solute particles per liter of solution. When two solutions with different osmolarities are separated by a membrane permeable to water but not permeable to solutes, water diffuses from the side with lower osmolarity to the side with higher osmolarity. So, solutions can be:

If a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink due to the difference in pressure and may even die from dehydration.

several tissues working together form an organ, and several organs together make up an organisms.

the group of cell that carries out special jobs are tissue.
