Hey!
When RBCs are placed in a hypertonic solution, then the RBCs shrink and shrivel up. This is because the cell sap in RBCs is of a more concentration than that of the hypertonic solution. The water inside flows out. As a result of which, exosmosis takes place and the cell becomes flaccid due to plasmolysis..
Hope it helps^^
