Osmosis
Biology · Secondary 4 · Medium · Osmosis
A plant cell is placed in a very concentrated salt solution. After some time, the cell membrane pulls away from the cell wall. What has caused this change?
- Water moved out of the cell by osmosis, causing plasmolysis
- Salt entered the cell by osmosis, bursting the membrane
- Water entered the cell by diffusion, making it turgid
- Salt left the cell by active transport, shrinking the wall
