No. A saturated solution is still in equilibrium. If you bring it into contact with more of the solute, the concentration will remain the same. Solute will precipitate out at the same rate that more solute dissolves into the solution. An unstable equilibrium would be a supersaturated solution. In a supersaturated solution, more of the solute is in solution that would be equilibrium with the solid solute (or gas if you are dissolving gas for example). An example that many people are familiar with is dissolving a lot of sugar into hot water. As it cools down, the solution becomes supersaturated. As long as there is nothing for the sugar to nucleate on , the sugar can remain in solution indefinitely. If you hang a string in the solution, the sugar will start crystalizing on the string, forming "rock candy."
The solvent in a solution is dissolving the solute. A solution is groups of molecules that are mixed in a completely even distribution. Basically a solute dissolved in a solvent. An example of a solvent would be water and a solute could be sugar. The sugar would dissolve in the water which would be a solution.
The solute would be iodine, and the solvent would be tincture
The solute can re-form as a solid.
In chemistry, a saturated solution refers to a solution in which no more solute can dissolve at a given temperature and pressure. This means that the maximum amount of solute has been dissolved in the solvent. Any additional solute added to the solution will remain undissolved and form a precipitate.
In a basic saltwater solution, the water molecules would be the solvent and the salt molecules would be the solute.
All that would happen is the solute would not absorb into the solution and it would spill off eventually.

This would be a dilute solution.
This would be an unsaturated solution.
Solute in chemistry means the substance that dissolves in a solution.
From areas of higher concentration (of water) to lower concentration (of water) - ie it fills the space. That would mean that it would flow from a solution whose concentration of solute is higher to one where the solute concentration is lower.
you can change the solute
Solute, because it is the minor component in the solution and it is what dissolves in the solvent. For example: Salt Water - The salt is the solute that dissoles in the solvent, which is water.
Sodium chloride is a solute when is dissolved in water (the solvent).
