Solution
The correct option is D Hypotonic solution
Hypotonic solution is a solution, which contains lesser solute concentration. In such case, the water molecules move from outside to inside of the cell through cell membrane (semi-permeable membrane). This process is called as endosmosis by which cell gain water.
