What term describes the environment outside the cell if a plant cell shrinks from a lack of water?

The term that describes the environment outside a plant cell when it shrinks from a lack of water is "hypertonic." In a hypertonic solution, the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside, causing water to leave the cell and resulting in plasmolysis, where the cell membrane pulls away from the cell wall. This condition is detrimental to plant cells, leading to wilting and reduced turgor pressure.
