Model 2 illustrates osmosis in animal and plant cells, showing how water moves across selectively permeable membranes in response to solute concentrations.

Diagram showing water movement into and out of animal and plant cells, illustrating osmosis with arrows indicating water flow in different solutions.

Final Answer:
8. a. Both animal and plant cells have a selectively permeable membrane.
b. Only plant cells have a permeable, rigid cell wall.
9. The thickness of the arrow indicates the rate or amount of water moving — thicker arrow = more water movement.
10. (Without diagrams A–F, this cannot be answered definitively; but generally:)
a. Cells in hypotonic solution gain water → net increase.
b. Cells in hypertonic solution lose water → net decrease.
c. Cells in isotonic solution → no net change.
11. a. In a hypertonic solution, the plant cell loses water → cytoplasm shrinks away from cell wall (plasmolysis).
b. In a hypertonic solution, the animal cell loses water → shrivels (crenation).
12. a. In a hypotonic solution, the plant cell gains water → becomes turgid (firm), but does not burst due to cell wall.
b. In a hypotonic solution, the animal cell gains water → swells and may burst (lysis).
13. The rigid cell wall of the plant cell prevents it from bursting — it resists expansion and maintains shape.
14. Without knowing the solute concentration inside the Elodea cell, we cannot determine definitively — but typically, 5% NaCl is hypertonic relative to plant cell cytoplasm, so likely hypertonic.
