A cell placed in hypotonic solution will burst or split as a result of water entering into the cell which makes it continue to swell until it burst. 15 people found this useful. Edit.
A hypotonic solution is a solution with a lower concentration of dissolved substances than is found inside the cell. If a cell is surrounded by hypotonic solution, then water will move INTO the cell by osmosis because there is a higher concentration of water outside the cell compared to inside. A cell in hypotonic solution will swell up and, if there is no cell wall, may burst.
