simple diffusion. When you surround a cell with water the water diffuses through the cell membrane causing it to swell and burst. The opposite is hyper tonic.
In a distilled solution an animal cell will swell and possibly burst. In a distilled solution the cell wall of the plant cell allows the plant cell to retain its shape.
Water moves into the cell by osmosis. If it is a plant cell, it will become fully turgid. If it is an animal cell, the cell will become larger and larger and will eventually burst.
The plant cell will shrink, but its cell wall will prevent it from completely collapsing. In contrast, the animal cell will shrink and may undergo crenation due to the hypertonic solution causing water to leave the cell.
If a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will move out of the cell due to the higher concentration of solutes in the surrounding solution. This loss of water can cause the cell to shrink and undergo plasmolysis, which may ultimately lead to cell death.
both the cell will swell and rbc will burst easily while cells of onion peal will resist the bursting to some extenct

It will not burst when placed in a dilute solution.
It will probably burst.A hypo-tonic solution means that there is less dissolved solute in the solution than there is in the cell, and a greater concentration of the solution (ie water).Since there's a greater concentration of water outside the cell, osmosis will cause a net movement of water into the cell, causing it to swell and most-likely burst.

well the cell walls prevent the cell from expanding but it does cause little damage to the cell wall
they don't because they have a cell wall. they have what we call plasmolisis. which is when the it looses water (because of the concentration gradient)
No, because the plant cell contains a cell wall which causes the plant cell not to burst. But, it will gain water until it cannot take anymore and the pressure will prevent more water from entering.

The cells burst because the solution is diluted i.e.,the cell is more concentrated than the solution. So the cells gain water by osmosis and since animal cells have no cell wall they will fill with water until they become so stretched that they burst.
NO.
