Answer:

C

Explanation:

Cell vacuole will loose water to shrink due to concentration difference between inner and outer environment

When the solution outside a cell has a higher solute concentration than the contents of the cell, there will be the shrinking of the central vacuole, and movement of the cell contents flow away from the cell wall. Thus, the correct option is C.

What does this type of solution known as?

This type of solution is known as the hypertonic solution in which the concentration of solute is higher than that inside the cell.

In this solution, the particles of solutes can not breach the membrane. In such types of solutions, there will be a net flow of water occurs out of the cell, due to which a cell loses its volume and becomes shrinkage in structure.

Therefore, the correct option for this question is C.
