Solution

The correct option is A Hypertonic
Hypotonic solution is a solution, which contains lesser solute concentration. An isotonic solution is a solution, which contains the same concentration of solute as in cell. A Hypertonic solution is a solution, which contains higher solute concentration and thus causes plasmolysis when a cell is placed in such solution.
