The shape and size of the cells will remain unchanged in isotonic solution because the cells will neither loose nor gain water in it.

Cells will swell up in hypotonic s olution as water will enter in it due to endosmosis.

Cells will shrink in hypertonic solution as water will move out of the cell due to exosmosis.
