    The document discusses solutions X and Y containing different concentrations of solutes and their tonicity. Solution X is hypotonic relative to a 300 mOsM cell. Solution X has the most water as it is 220 mOsM while Solution Y is 350 mOsM. A 100 mOsM cell would swell in a 50 mOsM solution. Water from an isotonic tomato soup would remain in the extracellular fluid compartment.
