Acell contains a 30% solute concentration and 70% water concentration. if the cell is placed in a
solution that is 60% solute and 40% water, what will happen to the cell, and what condition is the
cell in?

the cell will lose water

the cell is in a hypertonic solution

Explanation:

The solution is hypertonic while the cell is hypotonic. The cell will lose water to the solution since there are more solutes in the solution compared to the cell. Water moves to solution through osmosis. After osmosis occurs, the condition becomes isotonic.
