What is the result of a cell being placed in distilled water and then transfered to a 5 percent salt solution?
If a cell is placed in distilled water, it will likely absorb water and swell up due to osmosis. When transferred to a 5 percent salt solution, the cell will lose water and shrink, as the high salt concentration outside the cell will cause water to move out of the cell by osmosis. This process is known as plasmolysis.
