Questions
1. A) If the potato cells were hypotonic to the surrounding solution, the surrounding solution itself
would be what to the potato cells (hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic)?
B) Were the potato cells submerged in water with no salt hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic to the
surrounding environment?
C) Were the potato cells submerged in 5 g/100mL salt solution hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic to
the surrounding environment?
D) Look at your graph. At approximately what concentration of salt solution would the potato cells
have likely been isotonic with the surrounding solution? [Tip: Estimate approximately at what
concentration there would have been no change in the average length of potato strips.]

Question options:
is the unidirectional movement of the cytoplasmic material around the central vacuole of the cell.
creates a whip-like motion used for motility in organisms such as Euglena sp.
is the beating back and forth of short microtubules dispersed around the cell to create motion (e.g. Paramecium sp.).
pushes the cytoplasm to one end of the cell and causes the plasma membrane to extend outward as a pseudopod.
WHAT IF? If the plant cell wall or the animal extracellular matrix were impermeable, what effect would thishave on cell function?
