What will be the direction of flow of water when a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution ?
(1) No flow of water in any direction
(2) Water will flow in both directions
(3) Water will flow out of the cell
(4) Water will flow into the cell

The correct option is (4) Water will flow into the cell

This is because – When a plant cell is placed in hypotonic solution water will flow into the cell as water moves from high water potential to low water potential.
