Question

1. If vegetables such as brinjals or lady's fingers become somewhat dry and shrivelled, they are put
in water. They start looking fresh again, because water enters inside them. In the absence of any
opening, how does water enter the vegetables?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Osmosis

Explanation:

When dry brinjals and lady's fingers become somewhat dry and shrivelled, they are put in water and eventually they start looking fresh again.

The vegetables look fresh due to absorption of water. The water enters into the cells through osmosis.

In this process, water moves from high water potential to lower water potential. 

The vegetables have a higher concentration of solute so when they are placed in water, water flows from a region of their higher concentration to a region of their lower concentration resulting in the swelling of the vegetables.

Answer 2

Answer:

vegetables like brinjals and lady finger looking fresh again by putting them into water the due to water enter inside them, water enters into the cells of vegetables through osmosis during the process the water moves from higher potential to lower water potential
