Answer: The distilled water solution would be hypotonic to your blood cells, so they would have water, swell, and have a possibilty to burst.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distilled water exterior of the red blood cell, since it is 100% water and no salt, is hypotonic to the red blood cell. Water motion is from a elevated concentration to a lower concentration. In this case water will go out of the red blood cell into the beaker.
