Answer:

Isotonic Solution

Explanation:

There are commonly three types of solutions:

  • Hypertonic solution = the concentration of solute is greater than in the cell
  • Hypotonic solution = the concentration of solute is less than in the cell
  • Isotonic solution= the concentration of solution and cell is same.

So, if the cell was in any other solution, it would have been burst or it would shrink. but nothing changed because it was in a solution where outside environment is similar to the internal environment
