Question
a hypertonic solution makes a plant cell burst makes an animal cell burst makes a cell become shriveled
Brief Explanations
In a hypertonic solution, the solute concentration outside the cell is higher than inside. Water moves out of the cell by osmosis. This causes the cell to lose water and become shriveled. Plant cells have a cell - wall which prevents bursting, and animal cells burst in hypotonic, not hypertonic, solutions.
