Answer:

b. The turgor pressure will increase but the cell wall prevents the cell from exploding.

Explanation:

When the extracellular fluid has a lower osmolarity than the cell, as it happens in hypotonic solutions, the flow of water will go into the cell. Since plant cells have rigid cell walls, it won't burst because the plasma membrane will expand only to the limit of the wall, water will enter until its internal pressure (turgor) prevents further influx.

I hope you find this information useful! Good luck!

Answer:

b the turgor pressure will increase but the cell wall prevents the cell from exploding

Explanation:

The plant cells are exposed in a change of pressure liquid depending the quantity of solids that are inside and outside the cell. Like in this case, the hypotonic solution is the one that has less solids outside the cell, that is the reason why the water enters the cell to equilibrate the concentration of solids inside and outside the cell.
