If red blood cells containing 20% sucrose and 80% water are placed in a solution containing 45% sucrose and 55% water, what happens to the cells (assuming that sucrose cannot permeate the cell membrane but water can)?​

a)

The cells swell because water of a net movement of water into the cells​

b)

The cells shrivel because of a net movement of water out of the cells​
