Answer:
When you add salt to vegetables, solute concentration outside gets higher than that of inside. So to maintain equillibrium with surroundings, plant cell releases water to equate the solute concentration on both sides of the cell wall. This condition is called________. (sorry I dont remember this. But check in Textbook. It will be given.)
