Answer:

The correct answer will be option-hypertonic and the cell will shrink in this solution

Explanation:

In the given question, the person drank the water with high salt concentration. The solution with high salt concentration and low water concentration is known as the Hypertonic solution.

When the person drank the water, the red blood cells with a low amount of salt and high amount of water as compared to the salt water lost their water through "osmosis" as the movement is driven by the concentration gradient from high water concentration to low concentration. As a result of this outward movement of water, the cell shrunk and the person died.

Thus, hyper tonic is the correct answer.
