Osmosis is the diffusion of water - and a hypotonic solution means it expands.
a plant cell sap has a lower water potential causing the water to enter the cell - it does not fight osmosis, it works with it.
They essentially react the same way but because plant cells have rigid cell walls the do not rupture (lyse) whereas animal cells will rupture in a hypotonic solution.
it will shrink too.
Plant cell become turgid .
When a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution then plant cell gains water by osmosis there is swelling of the contents of the cell away from the cell wall ,this phenomenon is known as deplasmolyzis
Osmosis works for any type of cell. Because of a lower concentration of solute inside the cell then out, the water would rush to where the solute is in an attempt to make it even. It would retain its shape because of its cell wall making it rigid which is absent in animal cells which is prone to swelling and making it burst.
hypertonic osmosis.
The animal cell is in an isotonic solution, and the plant cell is in a hypotonic solution
Any solution with more H2O than inside the cell will cause the cell to swell. Animal cells will burst under a lot of pressure, but plant cells will not, due to the presence of a cell well surrounding the cell. In other words, a hypotonic solution will cause a cell to swell, and a hypertonic solution will cause a cell to shrink. Hypo -> hyper
When a plant cell is placed in an hypotonic solution it becomes swollen and hard. The cell takes in water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting.
Both types of cells will have endo-osmosis and will become turgid

When a plant is wilting (which is due to plasmolysis of plant cells caused by diffusion), water it and it would become a hypotonic solution. Water enter plant cells and this increases turgor pressure, enabling plants to be upright.
the plant cell shrinks and this is because concentration is high in the solution and less in plant cell
hypertonic osmosis.
That depends entirely on what is in this solution. Hypotonic and hypertonic are relative terms to compare to solutions usually serperated by a semi-permeable membrane. Relative to a plant cell or e.g. a red blood cell the named solution of 0.3x10-5M NaCl is hypotonic, but compared to sea water it is hyper. A hypotonic solution contains a lesser concentration of impermeable solutes than the the inside cell. When a cell's cytoplasm is bathed in a hypotonic solution the water will be drawn out of the solution and into the cell by osmosis. If water molecules continue to diffuse into the cell, it will cause the cell to swell, up to the point that lysis (rupture) may occur.

I believe plant cells prefer a hypotonic solution.
The cell wall prevents the plant cell from bursting.
