Most likely, the water will enter the tissue due to osmosis, stretching and finally splitting the cell membranes and destroying the cells.
However, in a living organism, you'd need an almighty quantity of water for that, simply because the body has ways of distributing the water.
If by injecting you mean causing the cells to be soaked in distilled water, the cells would swell up, and possibly burst. This is because the distilled H2O creates a hypotonic environment where water would diffuse into the cell via osmosis, since the interior of the cell has a higher concentration of "non-water stuff".
If you mean directly injecting a cell, it would probably depend on how much you inject, since if its enough to stretch the cell beyond a certain point it will explode. That is if the physical injection hasn't destroyed the cell to begin with.
It is because the ditilled water is hyperconcentrated w.r.t. the sap contained inside the cell. As a result of this, the water enters from its area of higher amount (solution) to the area of lower amount (in side the cell) by the process called osmosis. Thus, the entery of water inside the cell makes is swollen and ulimately cause the bursting of the cell.
There will most likely be a net movement of water into the cell. This is because the concentration of solutes outside the cell is greater than inside the cell, so the water will move inside in order to establish equilibrium.
If it is an animal cell, it will eventually burst. If it is a plant cell, the cell wall will prevent it from bursting.
If you inject water, it changes the solute concentration surrounding the red blood cell. Instead of being isotonic (when there is no net movement of liquid into or out of the cell), the balance shifts, causing water to diffuse by osmosis into the red blood cell. This causes the cell to swell up. It may burst (cell lysis) if too much water diffuses in.
nothing
osmosis ocurs and water moves into the cell, expanding the membrane.
Normally red blood cells look like flat disk, witch is compressed in the center. So that they have more surface area when they get exposed to oxygenated air from alveoli and secondly they can get folded, when they squeeze through capillaries, witch are smaller than the size of red blood cells. When we put them in the distilled water, they will get swollen, like a boll, as water will enter the cells due to higher oncotic (osmotic, you can say) pressure inside the cells.
You have an UPS with a motorcycle battery in it, correct? You use the distilled water to top off the electrolyte in the cells.
The distilled water is a hypotonic environment.
The process is called osmosis.
When plant cells are exposed to salt water the process of dehydration occurs. The cells die as a result of the water that is pulled out during dehydration.

The cells of the elodea leaf becomes turgid... Remember that the distilled water is hypotonic to the cell and water will move in to the cell walls creating turgidity....Just like when you go to grocery store, the produce are always sprinkled with water...This is best for plants....

Yes, rust happens to iron nail though it is kept in distilled water.
What term describes the condition of plant cells after being placed in distilled water?

If a cucumber is placed in distilled water, the water molecules will flow into the cell by osmosis. This happens because the distilled water solution has a lower osmotic pressure than the cucumber cell.
There should be exactly no free electron flow (current) in distilled water because distilled water has zero conductivity. The charges will quickly be neutralised by spontaneous molecule contact. As distilled water is carbonated gradually when exposed to the air, it is electrically conductive.
