Answer: hypertonic

Explanation: Osmosis: The net movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. Hypertonic means that the environment outside of the cell has a higher concentration of solutes than the cell itself. That will attract water molecules from the cell leading to the shrinking of the cell.
