A(n) solution has a higher concentration of water and lower concentration of solute than the cell placed in the solution.

Answer : A hypotonic solution has a higher concentration of water and lower concentration of solute than the cell placed in the solution.

Explanation :

Solution : It is made up of the combination of amount solute and solvent.

Isotonic solutions : It is defined as the solutions in which the concentration of solute inside the cell and outside the cell is same.

Hypotonic solutions : It is defined as the solutions in which the concentration of solute inside the cell is lower than outside the cell.

For example : Diluted sugar syrup

Hypertonic solutions : It is defined as the solutions in which the concentration of solute inside the cell is higher than outside the cell.

For example : Concentrated sugar syrup

Hence, a hypotonic solution has a higher concentration of water and lower concentration of solute than the cell placed in the solution.
