English explorers and colonists named Hudson Bay after Sir Henry Hudson who explored the bay beginning August 2, 1610 on his ship Discovery. On his fourth voyage to North America, Hudson worked his way around Greenland's west coast and into the bay, mapping much of its eastern coast.
PLASMOLYSIS IN ELODEA CELLS. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration. This movement of water may be harmful to cells. A hypertonic solution can result in the plasmolysis of a cell when the water in a. living cell osmoses out of the cell and the cell becomes dehydrated. Most cells live in an isotonic solution where the movement of. water is constant into and out of the cell (equilibrium).
high osmotic pressure of surrounding fluid pulls fluid out of the cell. hypotonicity. in a hypotonic environment, fluid will enter a cell and cause it to swell and burst. the inside of the cell has higher osmotic pressure than the surrounding fluid, so fluid is drawn into the cell.both hypertonicity and hypotonicity in the extracellular fluids will destroy cells.igh osmotic pressure of surrounding fluid pulls fluid out of the cell. hypotonicity. in a hypotonic environment, fluid will enter a cell and cause it to swell and burst. the inside of the cell has higher osmotic pressure than the surrounding fluid, so fluid is drawn into the cell.
