When a cell is placed in a solution with a very low solute concentration, water diffuses into the cell. Such a solution is called a(n) solution. hypotonic

hypotonic

Explanation:

Osmosis is defined as the process in which molecules of a solvent tend to move through a semipermeable membrane from a region of low concentration solution to a region of more concentrated solution.

In case of osmosis, solvent molecules move from solution having low solute concentration to high solute concentration.

Thus as water has moved into a cell with low solute concentration,the solution must be hypotonic or must contain less concentration of solute as compared to the cell.
