Want this question answered?
Animal cells will burst (lyse) first in a hypotonic solution because they lack a cell wall.
hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic
Plants swell when hypertonic in hypotonic solutions of impermeable materials
Uh... extremity? Too much hypotonic solution could cause hemolysis of the cells, if too much water is forced into them.
As, human cell is an animal cell. When it is placed in an hypotonic solution like freshwater,it will finally swell and burst
Hypotonic cells are cells that have been exposed to hypotonic solutions. These solutions cause cells to plumb as they fill with the solution.
A hypotonic solution (meaning the salt concentration is lower outside the cell than it is on the inside) will effectively burst your cells due to the water rushing in to diffuse in the salt in your cells.

When animal cells burst it's called lysis.
A hypotonic solution contains less solutes than the cell, and so water will be drawn into the cell by osmosis.

That is not a question.Blood cells burst in hypotonic solutions because there is no equilibrium. therefore, since the solution outside of the blood cell is at a higher concentration, the solution will flow into the blood cell ( high to low concentration) and cause the cell to expand. The blood cell will burst if too much solution enters the cell.
Hypotonic solutions have a lower concentration of solutes compared to our body fluids. When we swim in a hypotonic solution, water enters our cells via osmosis to equalize the concentration, but our cells have mechanisms to regulate the influx of water, preventing them from swelling up and bursting.
A hypotonic infusion will cause (all) the cells to swell. If they swell enough, they burst.
