Answer 1

When a eurkaryotic cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the net movement of H2O would occur the process of osmosis.

When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will move from a region of hypotonic solution to hypertonic solution (cell) by a process of osmosis via semipermeable membrane.

Movement of water from a region of lower solute concentration solution (hypotonci solution) to a region of higher solute concentration solution (hypertonic solution) via semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.
