Assume a living cell with 0.9% (w/w) of glucose solution (aqueous). This cell is immersed in another solution having equal mole fraction of glucose and water. (Consider the data upto first decimal place only) The cell will :

1. shrink since solution is 0.45% (w/w) as a result of association of glucose molecules (due to hydrogen bonding)
2. shrink since solution is 0.5% (w/w)
3. show no change in volume since solution is 0.9% (w/w)
4. swell up since solution is 1% (w/w)
