Madeleine Powers · Answer 2

isotonic: allows for the free movement of water across the membrane without changing the concentration of solutes on either side

hypertonic: shrink. Concentration of solutes is greater outside the cell than inside it

hypotonic: swell. Concentration of solutes is greater inside the cell than outside of it
