Explanation:
Osmosis is the movement of water across a membrane. Salt triggers osmosis by attracting the water and causing it to move toward it, across the membrane. Salt is a solute. When you add water to a solute, it diffuses, spreading out the concentration of salt, creating a solution. If the concentration of salt inside a cell is the same as the concentration of salt outside the cell, the water level will stay the same, creating an isotonic solution. Cells will not gain or lose water if placed in an isotonic solution.
