Explanation:

  • If we placed a plant cell and animal cell in tonicity of external medium, the plant cell will be shrinks and animal cell will be bursts.
  • A hypertonic solution is going to do the reverse of a cell as the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside. If we are placed in plant cell in the external medium, water will rush out of the cell, and then it will shrivel up. When this happened only for a plant cell, it's called a plasmolyzed cell.
  • If you place an animal or plant cell in an existing medium tonicity, the cell will shrink because it will lose water (water will move from a greater concentration within the cell to a reduced outside concentration).
  • A single animal cell in an external medium of tonicity will fill with water and then burst.
