The term that describes the environment inside the cell is hypotonic.

Hypotonic environment is a solution that has a reduced osmotic pressure than a certain fluid, usually a body fluid. In a hypotonic solution, all the dissolved solute molecules have a molar concentration that is lower than that of another solution or a cell. When a cell is exposed to a hypotonic environment, there is movement of water into the cell and the cell may burst if it does not have a cell wall.

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Similarities in structure among distantly related species are analogous if they evolved independently in similar environments. They provide good evidence for natural selection. Examples of evidence from embryology which supports common ancestry include the tail and gill slits present in all early vertebrate embryos
