What will be the direction of movement of water- in or out of the cell- when a cell is placed in a concentrated salt solution?

Explanation:
The hypertonic solution has a lower water concentration than the hypotonic solution, so a concentration gradient of water now exists across the membrane. Water molecules will move from the side of higher water concentration to the side of lower concentration until both solutions are isotonic.

Answer: Exocytosis.Water will move out of the cell.
Explanation: Many people have doubt with explanation. So, after this you can easily understand that why water moves out.
Outside salt concentration is more compared to inside the cell. So, to balance salinity of water, water inside the cell will move out to dilute the solution until concentration of salt is equal both sides.
Hope I have made myself clear!!!
