Thus the cells of animals or plants in the hypertonic solution shrinks as they will loose water. The water moves from the higher concentration to the lower concentration.

The brine shrimp cells will shrink in the hypertonic solution of the salt water. Thus the shrimp will actively take or pump water inside the cell to counter balance the loss of water caused due to osmosis.
