Hypotonic allows cells to take up water (H2O) through osmosis. This swells the cells to provide better dispersal of the chromosomes at time of spreading. The osmosis is accomplished by setting up a concentration gradient between the cytoplasm of the cell and the hypotonic solution surrounding the cells.
