It probably collects in the plant cell vacuoles.

If an animal cell is placed in a hypotonic solution water moves into the cell causing the cell to swell and possibly burst?
Which is called Plasmoptysis.
What direction does water move when cells are placed in hypertonic solution?
Water moves out of the cell in hypertonic solution.
Does placing plant cells in a hypotonic solution causes the osmotic pressure to increase?
When a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the osmotic pressure tends to increase as the water in the cells moves to a place elevated in solute concentration. The osmotic pressure is the chief cause of support in numerous plants.
What happens when excess water enters the plant cell?
If excess water moves into an animal cell, it will eventually burst. This happens if the cell is placed in a hypotonic solution (a solution with a lower solute concentration than the cell).
A cell will lose water and shrink size in which solution?
Water moves along concentration gradient. So solution is hypotonic.
What happens when water moves out of a cell if the cell is placed in a what solution?
Hypotonic Solution
What type of solution is a cell in if water moves into the cell?
It is in a Hypotonic Solution.

Water moves out of the cell in hypertonic solution.

If an erythrocyte is placed in a hypertonic solution what will it do?
If a human red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic environment, the red blood cell will swell and eventually burst. The reason for this is because a hypotonic solution has a higher osmotic pressure compared to the cytoplasm of the red blood cell. Thus, the water from the hypotonic solution moves into the red blood cell causing it to rupture.
What happens when excess water enters the plant cell?
If excess water moves into an animal cell, it will eventually burst. This happens if the cell is placed in a hypotonic solution (a solution with a lower solute concentration than the cell).
A cell will lose water and shrink size in which solution?
Water moves along concentration gradient. So solution is hypotonic.
Does Water always moves from a hypertonic solution into a hypotonic one?
Water always follows the salt.
If water moves into a cell and the cells swells it's called what?
When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water enters the cell through osmosis, and the cell swells.
Water moves out of a cell if it is placed in this kind of solution?
hypertonic solution!
What happen if cell is placed in hypotonic solution?
When a plant cell is placed in a hypo tonic solution it undergoes endosmosis thus the cell becomes turgid but in case of animal cell due to the absence of cell wall the cell may not withhold the turgour pressure and might blast.
