Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The term that refers to a solution with a higher solute concentration outside the cell than inside the cell is hypertonic.

An isotonic solution has an equal concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell, while a hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solutes outside the cell than inside the cell.
