Osmosis

%) , osmosis tends to occur.Hypertonic solution - higher solute concentration outside the cell.Hypotonic solution - lower solute concentration outside the cell.Isotonic solution have the same solute concentration outside and inside the cell.Water moves down the concentration gradient.Potato cells in 2% and 3% solutions will shrink.Water moves out of the cells to regions of greater solute concentration.Potato cells in 1% solution will change little in cell size or shape.The difference between solution concentration and potato concentration is small.So there is no big movement of water.
