Question

what happens if you put an animal cell in a hypotonic solution?
the cell will stay the same size.
the cell will burst.

Explanation:

In a hypotonic solution, the solute concentration outside the animal cell is lower than inside. Water moves into the cell by osmosis. Since animal cells lack a rigid cell - wall to withstand the increased pressure, the cell will swell and eventually burst.

Answer:

The cell will burst.
