Are solutions with high concentrations of solutes concentrated?
The more concentrated solution is called "hypertonic".Think of when you went to elementary school and there was always that extremely hyper, almost A.D.D. child in your class. So, to help your remember, think of the kid because hypertonic means "above strength." Hope that helped. :]
How is hypotonic and hypertonic differ?
If we take a example of cell then if the solution outside the cell containing less solutes as compare to inside of cell then that solution is hypotonic and if the solution outside the cell contain more solute concentration then it is hypertonic solution

What kind of solution causes the cell to shrink?
salt water. this will cause the cell to lose it's water osmotically resulting in it becoming plasmolysedA hypertonic solution
