An animal cell that is surrounded by freshwater will burst because the osmotic pressure causes a) water to move into the cell b) water to move out of the cell c) solutes to move into the cell d) solutes to move out of the cell

Because of the process of osmosis, since there is more solute in the animal cell than its surroundings, the water would have to flow in to dilute the solute in the animal cell. However, too much water flowing into the cell is dangerous since the cell membrane cannot expand quickly enough to accommodate the water. therefore the animal cell will swell up and even burst under the pressure.

Pray this helps you :)
