What structure do plant cells have that animal cells do not keeps them from bursting in a hypotonic solution?

A cell wall made of collagen, which surrounds the plasma membrane. Animal cells do not have a cell wall.

Because of cellwall making its rigid shape which is absent in animal cells as simple as that.

If an animal cell shrinks it was probably placed in a . hypotonic solution hypertonic solution isotonic solution?
"hypertonic"
What correctly describes the normal tonicity conditions for typical plant and animal cells?
The animal cell is in an isotonic solution, and the plant cell is in a hypotonic solution
Bursting of a red blood cells in hypotonic solution?
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.
What type of solution do animal cells prefer?
I believe plant cells prefer a hypotonic solution.
What happens to a plant cell if it is place in a hypotonic solution?
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.
What organelle keeps some animal cells from bursting in a hypotonic solution?
contractile vacuole

Which type of cell may burst if it becomes hypotonic?
Animal cells will burst (lyse) first in a hypotonic solution because they lack a cell wall.

Placing an animal cell in a hypotonic solution will cause water to?
move into the cell
What happens to both plant and animal cells when they are placed into a solution that is hypotonic?
Both types of cells will have endo-osmosis and will become turgid
What is the ideal osmotic environment for an animal cell?
Hypotonic
What happent to a plant cell when placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions?
When placed in an isotonic solution nothin will happen to the cell, but when placed in a hypotonic solution the cell will implode (not explode, thus the water will push the cell on itself until implosion occurs.) Last but not least a hypertonic solution will cause the cell to explode by too much water entering the cell because there is already more water in the cell then in the solution. So the simple answer is: Isotonic solution= nothing, hypotonic solution= implosion, and hypertonic solution= explosion.
