Hii..

The solution is hypotonic so endosmosis of the solvent will occur into the animal cell and it will swell up...if the endosmosis continues then the cell may burst...

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Endosmosis. As the external solution is very dilute or hypotonic, water passes into the animal cell due to endosmosis the animal cell continues to swell up for some time but ultimately bursts up

Reason- Bursting of animal cell with endosmosis is due to the absence of rigid cell wall as found in plant cells
