If the contents of a cell have a solute concentration of 0.04 percent, which of these solutions would cause it to swell? 10–percent solute concentration 1–percent solute concentration 0.1–percent solute concentration 0.01–percent solute concentration

Sagot :

Osmosis is the natural phenomenon where molecules move from a region with a  lower concentration to a region with a higher concentration, relatively. IN this case, a solution that will cause a cell to swell is a solution with lower concentration. Hence, the answer would have to be 0.01 percent solute.
