Water moves according to an concentration gradient. Water potential gradient between two places
What else can I help you with?
If a cell is placed in a salt water water leave cell by?
Osmosis
What will happen to a freshwater bacterial cell that is placed in salt water Will water enter or leave the cell?
If a freshwater bacterial cell is placed in salt water, water will leave the cell due to the higher concentration of solutes in the surrounding salt water. This process is known as plasmolysis, and it can lead to the bacterial cell shriveling up and potentially dying due to dehydration.
What does salt perserve?
no, putting a cell in a solution with a high concentration of salt will cause all the water to leave the cell, called dessication, which kills the cell.
What is the effect when you pour salt on a plant?
If the plant is not a salt water plant, then plasmolysis will occur when you pour salt on a plant.When you pour salt on a plant water molecules inside the cell are drawn out. When the water molecules leave the cell, the cell becomes dehydrates and shrinks. This is called plasmolysis.
What will happen to a red blood cell if placed in a bowl of concentrated salt solution?
Water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink and shrivel.
Is a cell is placed in a salt water water leaves cell by?
If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by osmosis.
If a cell is placed in salt water water leaves the cell by .?
If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by osmosis.
Higher salt concentration outside cell than inside what would happen?
Through the process of osmosis, the water inside the cell would leave the cell in order to equalize the concentration of water relative to salt in and outside the cell. The cell would shrink. Salt is not passing through at all.
What will evaporate water with salt or water without salt?
They will both evaporate but the water with salt in it will leave the salt behind and it will once again become clean water. It will also leave other impurities out.
How does water leave a cell when placed in salt water?
osmosis, which is diffusion of water across a membrane from an area with lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.
Can salt water be sepperated into water and salt?
Yes, if you leave it outside the water can evaporate leaving the salt behind.
What would happen if a cell was placed in a strong salt solution?
The overwhelming extracellular Na+ would make water leave the cell, causing it to shrivel.Water comes out of the cell to develop equilibrium.
