Question
The image is showing water moving out of the cell so that it can attempt to reach equilibrium. What type of solution is this?
Responses

The correct response is:
**It is a hypertonic solution because it has a higher concentration of solutes on the outside of the cell.**
In a hypertonic solution, water moves out of the cell to where there is a higher concentration of solutes (outside the cell), which causes the cell to lose water and potentially shrink.
**It is a hypertonic solution because it has a higher concentration of solutes on the outside of the cell.**
