Determine how hypotonic hypertonic and turgor pressure are interrelated.

Hypotonic, hypertonic and turgor pressure are related to each other. Hypotonic refers to a condition or a solution where the concentration of water is more inside than outside (less salty or less sugary). Hypertonic refers to a condition when the concentration of water inside is less that outside (more salty or more sugary). Turgor pressure refers to the difference in the pressure due to difference in the concentration of water.

If a living cell is put in a hypertonic solution (more sugary) then, water will exit the cell and enter the hypertonic solution to balance water content on both the sides. This will also lead to the change in the turgor pressure. Thus, hypertonic, hypotonic and turgor pressure are interrelated.
