Heya!!!
Here's the answer!!!
When the plant and animal cells are placed in the hypotonic solutions , the behavior would be same in the beginning !
That is. , both the cells show Endosmosis as the water from the solution passes inside the cells.
When the cells are fully turgid , the Animal cell would burst while the plant cell remains turgid !!
Reason : The plant cell has Cell wall which would resist the Turgor pressure by opposite pressure called wall pressure.
since , the animal cell lacks cell wall , it would burst out.
Hope This Helps You :)

Answer:
In hypotonic solution , water molecules are free to pass across the plasma membrane of the cell in both direction but more wattle enters the cell as compared to the water molecules which leaves. In this case the net result is that the cell swells up that is becomes inflated . In the case of animal cells like RBC it may be Swollen up and can ultimately burst that is haemolysed. But in the case of plant cell it is a little different because of the presence of cell wall . When the water molecules entering in the Cell results in the swelling of the cell, the cell membrane of the cell exerts pressure on the cell wall because cell wall is a dead and firm wall it also exerts equal and opposite pressure on the internal membrane of the cell as a result of which plant cell do not bursts and it is capable of handling much pressure as compared to animal cell.
Hope it Helps !!!!
