Question

What would happen if a cell placed in concentrated solution is placed in freshwater

Answer 1

When placed in concentarated solution it shrinks as the water drains out. On putting in fresh water it again absorbs the water

Answer 2

Firstly, the cell will shrink when kept in the conc. solution as the solution is hypertonic so exosmosis takes place from the cell . and Secondly, when the cell is kept in freshwater, it gains it normal structure as the solution hypotonic for the cell at that condition and endosmosis takes place.
