Being isotonic, the environment and the inside of the cell will have the same concentration. If the cell is placed in a solution of a lesser sucrose solution, the water will enter into the cell making it bigger in size. The movement of the water is from a portion of lower concentration to a portion of higher sucrose concentration. 

The answer is; The cell will increase in size
