Which statement best describes a hypertonic solution relative to a cell?
A
It has a lower solute concentration than the cell, so water moves into the cell by osmosis.
B
It has the same solute concentration as the cell, so there is no net movement of water.
C
It causes solute to diffuse into the cell until equilibrium is reached, with no net water movement.
D
It has a higher solute concentration than the cell, so water moves out of the cell by osmosis.
