question 3 if a cell is placed in a solution that is hypertonic relative to the inside of the cell, what will happen? a water will move out of the cell b water will move into the cell c solutes will move out of the cell d solutes will move into the cell
In a hypertonic solution relative to the inside of the cell, there is a higher solute - concentration outside the cell. Osmosis causes water to move from an area of lower solute - concentration (inside the cell) to an area of higher solute - concentration (outside the cell).
