Answer:

ii. Raisins shrink

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation: when raisins are placed in water, the water from the surrounding diffuses into the raisins and so the raisins swell up. The process is called osmosis. When swollen raisins are placed in a concentrated sugar solution, they will shrink. This process is called osmosis. A raisin, when put in a sugar solution (or any other concentrated solution), loses water by exosmosis and consequently shrinks This happens due to osmosis. (Osmosis is the passage of water from a region of high water concentration to a region of lower water concentration)
