@bioseye: when a red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic environment (a solution with a lower concentration of dissolved solutes than the inside of the cell), water rushes into the cell by osmosis, causing the rbc to enter hemolysis (bursting), in a plant cell, a hypotonic environment is optimal since the cell will not burst because of the protective cell wall #bioseye #apbiology #apbioreview #osmosis #unit2apbio
