The term tonicity refers to the effect of a solution on the translocation of water into or out of cells.

Explanation:

  • Tonicity describes how a solution affects cell volume, primarily through the movement of water across the cell membrane.
  • It is determined by the concentration of solutes that cannot cross the membrane, influencing osmosis.
  • Water moves to balance solute concentrations, affecting cell size and shape.
