Salt draws water from plant cells. This causes the cells to dehydrate and the plant to shrivel up and die.
plasmolysis
Nothing would happen because the plant cell has a cell wall and it will protect it from shriveling up or dying.
The cell memebrane would shrink from the cell wall (plasmolosis) and the cell would eventually die
Water potential of the water inside the cells is higher that the water potential of the water outside the cells. (That would means the concentration of "pure" water inside the cells are higher than that outside the cells) Water moves from an higher water potential to an lower water potential. Thus Plasmolysis of the cells will take place. Which means the Nucleus,Vacuole and all the other cellular material will move from the inside of the cell to the outside.

It holds water in the cell for later use.

It can possibly burst.
the plant may wilt-or even due to flaccid cells. Shrinked cell is called flaccid cell ,it is due to lack of water.
Xylem cells carry water and nutrients from the roots to other parts of a plant.

When water is plentiful, the cell expands so that the plant stands upright. Without water, the cell shrinks, so the plant wilts.When water is plentiful, the cell expands so that the plant stands upright. Without water, the cell shrinks, so the plant wilts.
if the plant cell is in concentrated water...it shrinks .i.e the water in plant cell flows out and hence the plant cell loses its turgidity and shrinks.this process is called exosmosis .

i feel a plant cell wall provides shape and it is a form of protection for the cell
If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by osmosis
