Question

What will happen if we put a plant and animal cell in the isotonic solution?

• A. No change
• B. Cell swells
• C. Cell shrinks
• D. Cell bursts

Answer 1

The correct option is A No change

An isotonic solution is a solution, which contains the same concentration of solute as in a cell. If animal and plant cells are kept in isotonic solution then cells will not swell or shrink. Hence, there will not be any change in cells.
