Answer:

The volume of the cell will remain same.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cell is surrounded by a solution that has same concentration of solute particles as the cytosol inside.That means the cytosol of the cell is isotonic to the solution in which the cell is kept.

As a result the cell will neither swells nor shrinks and the volume of the cell remains constant.
