Cell is placed in a solution If the cell is observed to shrink the solution must be relative to the interior of the cell?

The solution must be hypertonic compared to the interior of the cell, meaning that it has a higher concentration of solutes. This causes water to leave the cell by osmosis, leading to shrinkage.

"hypertonic"


What does a hypertonic solution have?

A hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration than the cell the solution is in. (So the cell will shrink when it is in a hypertonic solution, because water will leave the cell in an attempt to balance the ratios of solute to water both inside and outside of the cell.)
