<h2>Answer:</h2>

The living cell concentration is hypertonic than outer solution hence the concentration of solutes will be higher than the solvent.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • In the question description it is mentioned that cell is present in the hypotonic solution than cell environment will be hypertonic.
  • In the cell the solute will present in the concentrated form.
  • Hence the water will move from the outer environment into sell through the osmosis.
  • Osmosis is the movement of water from higher concentration to low concentration through semi permeable membrane.
