Article mentions "Tonicity" with no link

This article mentions "hypertonic" and "hypotonic" at many points, but to a casual reader this may not have meaning. I propose linking some mentions of hyper/hypotonic solutions to Tonicity. Fantasy024 (talk) 04:22, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Semi-protected edit request on 8 August 2026

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Osmosis. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{subst:ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
