The right answer is C. Solute.

* A hypotonic solution is a solution less concentrated in solute so more concentrated in water.

* A hypertonic solution is a solution more concentrated in solute and therefore less concentrated in water.

* Two isotonic solutions have the same solute concentration and, therefore, also the same water concentration.
