O It will die.
It will shrink because it was placed in a hypertonic solution.

Answer:

It will shrink because it was placed in a hyper tonic solution

Explanation: Hyper tonic = More solute (sugar)

Hypo tonic = more liquid (water)

When a cell is placed in a solution it will essentially try to balance out so in this case water goes out the cell and solute goes, in shrinking the cell.
