To prevent water gain in a cell in a hypotonic solution, the cell could actively pump out excess water using ion pumps. To prevent water loss in a cell in a hypertonic solution, the cell could accumulate solutes or ions to balance the osmotic pressure and retain water. In an isotonic solution, the cell maintains equilibrium and does not actively gain or lose water.
