- hypotonic solution = if the medium surrounding the cell has a higher water concentration than the cell meaning that the cell will gain water by osmosis such solution is called hypotonic solution
- isotonic solution = if the medium has exactly the same water concentration as the cell there will be no net movement of water across the cell membrane such solution is called isotonic solution
- hypertonic solution = is the medium has a lower water concentration than the cell meaning that it is very concentrated solution the cell will lose water by osmosis such solution is called hypertonic solution

Answer:
Hypotonic solution: a solution which contains more solute than solvent
Hypertonic solution: a solution which contains more solvent than solute
Isotonic solution: a solution in which the solute and solvent are equally distributed --a cell normally wants to remain in an isotonic solution, where the concentration of the liquid outside of it
