An animal cell the is surrounded by fresh water will burst because the osmotic pressure causes?
a water to move in the cell
b water to move out the cell
c solutes to move in the cell
d solutes to move out the cell

In a hypotonic solution, such as fresh water, the water concentration of the cell's cytoplasm is lower than that of the hypotonic solution. If unicellular organism is exposed to fresh water, the water will enter the organism by the process called osmosis. The aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the organism. But, that water entering the cytoplasm of the cell will make pressure on the cell membrane. If the excess water cannot be removed from the organism, it will swell and burst.
