The cell placed within the hypertonic solution will quickly become dehydrated due to the concentration gradients and osmosis.

Though I cannot provide the drawing of the cell, I can describe what a hypertonic solution is and what effect it would have on the cell.

A hypertonic solution is a solution that when compared to another solution or object, has a higher concentration of solute. If made into a drawing, this would look like the cell is in water, but said water contains a large amount of solute, like sugar for example.

Hypertonic solutions can cause water to move. The water moves through a process known as Osmosis, which is the tendency of water to move towards a location that has a higher concentration of solute, in order to dissolve this concentration. Since the liquid inside the cell has a lower concentration of solute than the environment, the water inside the cell will escape through osmosis and can severely dehydrate the cell.
