    The concentration of water differ by placing the cell in hypotonic, hypertonic or isotonic solution.

    Hypertonic solution:

    If a cell is placed in a hypertonic soluton, water will leave the cell, and the cell will shrink.

    Isotonic solution:

    The relative concentration of solute and water are equal on both sides of membrane.

    Hypotonic solution:

    If cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will enter the cell and cell would swell.
