For each beaker, identify whether the solution inside was hypotonic, hypertonic, or isotonic in comparison to the control beaker.

Answer 1) The solution can be called as Hypotonic in comparison to the control solution, only when the solution goes inside the solute/cell and increases its weight and eventually resulting in bursting of cells if present. In this case the concentration of solutes outside the cell will be less than the inside the cell

Answer 2) A solution can be called as hypertonic when we compare it with the control solution and find exactly opposite of hypotonic solution conditions; which is the water from the cell or solute comes out in the solution making the cell shrivel if present. Here, the concentration of solutes outside the cell t is always greater than the inside of the cell.

Answer 3) Isotonic solution in comparison to control solution is the one in which the water diffuses but the concentration of the solute and the cell in the solution remains constant by maintaining an equilibrium between both. The concentration of the solute remains the same inside the cell and outside the cell.
