Question: Q: What kind of solution might cause animal cells to burst?   Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:  Unless an animal cell (such as the red blood cell in the top panel) has an adaptation that allows it to alter the osmotic uptake of water, it will lose too much water and shrivel up in a hypertonic environment. If placed in a hypotonic solution, water molecules will enter the cell, causing it to swell and burst. Plant cells (bottom panel) become plasmolyzed in a hypertonic solution, but tend to do best in a hypotonic environment. Water is stored in the central vacuole of the plant cell.   Choices:  - Acid Solution  - monatomic  - eutrophic  - hypotonic   A:
Answer:
hypotonic
