Answer: water will move out of the animal cell causing it to swell and burst  (Option C)


Explanation:


When a cell is immersed into a salty solution, the osmotic pressure generated by concentration differences of salt, will make the salt come in due to cell self-protection mechanism of the cell and water will come out, eventually the cell can burst .But since the animal cells has a higher concentration of salt and the solution has a lower concentration osmosis will take place and salt will move from higher salt concentration to lower.
