It is the same with cereal with milk because when u poor the dressins the lettuce gets wet and soak
It takes in water by osmosis. This is why a wilted plant or even a wilted stalk of celery will become firm again if given water.
If you put them into pure water, they will become firm again.

Osmosis brings water into the cell which helps wilted plants recover from dehydration.
In a wilted plant- the wilted plant becomes firm again.
The cell wall is a semi-permeable membrane, allowing solvent (water) to passthrough but not solute (salts). When salad dressing is placed in contactwith the cells, osmosis occurs. If the salad dressing, in comparison to thecontents of the cell, is more concentrated, then water will leave the cell(causing the leafy salad to appear wilted). If the salad dressing, incomparison to the contents of the cell, is less concentrated, then waterfrom the dressing will enter the cell - perhaps causing cell rupture. Idoubt the second case truly happens, but you get the idea of what happensunder osmosis conditions.
Osmosis brings water into the cell which helps wilted plants recover from dehydration.
Osmosis is responsible for vegetables crisping up when soaked in water. The water diffuses into the cells and makes them turgid.
wilted lettuce are in a plasmolysed condition,when they are placed in a cold water or hypotonic solution then water enters the leaves by thye process of endosmosis and the leaves becomes deplasmolysed and they become crisp.
Lettuce becomes wilted after being in salty salad dressing for a long time because of osmosis. The water inside the cells of the lettuce leaves and is replaced with the salt in the salad dressing.
heat Answer Plants that have wilted usually do so because they are transpiring more moisture by osmosis than they can find available at the roots or in the atmosphere. Heat is usually the reason for the wilting rather than the cure. Shade from direct sun spray with water and water at the roots and it should recover.
