A hypertonic solution has:
Fewer water molecules outside the cell than are inside the cell. Thus, option "A" is correct.
<h3>What is hypertonic solution?</h3>
- The cell is in a hypertonic solution because it lost water through osmosis and shrunk.
- A hypertonic solution contains more solute molecules compared to solvent molecules while the hypotonic solution has more solvent molecules than solute molecules.
- When a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution it loses water through osmosis and shrinks.
- An animal cell placed in a hypotonic solution absorbs water through osmosis, increases in size and then bursts. Plant cell, on the other hand, does not burst when placed in a hypotonic solution as it contains a cellulose cell wall.
Thus, option "A" is correct.
