Answer 1

Answer:

Assertion(A)-Tender mangoes put in salt water shrink.

Reason(R) –In hypertonic solution, water moves out of the cells due to

osmosis​

Explanation:

1) The reason for the first is :- When a raw mango is placed in concentrated salt solution, it loses water due to osmosis. .You know that Water flows from lower concentration to higher concentration.

So that's why the mangoes shrink.

2)The reason for the second is :-

The hypertonic solution has a lower water concentration than the hypotonic solution. Water molecules moves from higher water concentration to lower concentration. So that's the reason.
