if there is a low concentration of sucrose to water (so there’s more water than sugar in a solution) outside of a cell, will the cell shrink or expand? and why (using osmosis to explain)?

i believe that the cell will expand because there is less sugar in the water. if you were to add more sugar into the water, then the cell will shrink in size because sugar and salt is the same thing if you add it in water.
