Question

A plant cell has 5 % salt concentration. It is placed into a solution containing 12 % salt concentration.

What will happen to plant cell?​

Answer 1

Answer:

This happens when the cell is kept in a solution that is hypertonic to the protoplasm. Note:When the plant cell is kept in a hypotonic solution, it absorbs water via osmosis and begins to expand, but the cell wall stops it from bursting. The plant cell becomes "turgid" or we can say hard and swollen.
