Imagine an Artificial Cell Made with a Selectively Permeable Membrane

Imagine an artificial cell made with a selectively permeable membrane that allows water to pass through but does not allow sugar to pass. If the artificial cell contains a 1% sugar solution and then you place the cell in a 2% sugar solution, what happens?

A) There is no movement of water.
B) Water leaves the cell because the solution is hypertonic to the cell.
C) Sugar diffuses in and water diffuses out until equilibrium is reached.
D) Water enters the cell because the solution is hypotonic to the cell.
