What else can I help you with?
A celery stalk is placed in a solution it begins to wilt what is a likely component of that solution?
A likely component of the solution that causes the celery stalk to wilt is a high salt concentration. Salt draws water out of the cells of the celery through the process of osmosis, leading to the wilting of the stalk.
What happens when a celery stalk is put in water?
the celery take in the water
Will celery turn into water?
Celery will not turn into water, but it does contain a high water content—about 95%. When celery is cut or decomposes, it may release water due to its moisture content, but it will not convert into water. Instead, the structure of the celery breaks down, which may create the appearance of liquid.
How does salt water suger water and plain water absorb celery?
Salt water and sugar water are hypertonic solutions, meaning they have a higher concentration of solute than inside the celery cells. This causes water to move out of the celery cells, leading to wilting. Plain water is a hypotonic solution, so water moves into the celery cells by osmosis, making the celery more firm and crisp.
Why did celery grow bigger in water?
You know that all plants need water and celery is a plant that is why it grows bigger in water.
Is celery produced in India?
yes celery are made in india
Why will celery not swell and burst when put in a salty solution?
The salt outside the celery is higher than it is inside. Water will leave the celery and it will (over time) become wilted. If you put the celery into plain water, the water will move into the celery causing it to become firmer. The water will always move to where there is more salt. There is a saying that "water follows salt".
Why do celery sticks have veins?
The celery has veins because the veins help the celery transport nutrians throughout the plant. Have you ever done the experiment when you put a celery in colored water? The celery's veins transport the color throughout the celery. It does this because the celery's veins transport the nutrians, so it does it with the water also.
When placed in tap water why does celery get stiff?
== == because the water makes the celery's cells go flaccid (stiff or erect) and that is why celery goes hard after being in water.
Which process explains what happens to a limp celery when it is put in pure water?
When limp celery is placed in pure water, it undergoes a process called osmosis. Water moves from an area of higher concentration (the pure water) to an area of lower concentration (the cells of the celery, which have a higher solute concentration). This movement of water into the celery cells causes them to swell, restoring the celery's crispness and firmness. As a result, the celery becomes turgid as the cells fill with water.
Does celery stay fresher in hypotonic water or hypertonic water?
Celery stays fresher in hypotonic water because it creates a lower concentration of solutes inside the celery cells compared to the surrounding water, allowing for water to flow into the cells through osmosis and keep the celery crisp. In hypertonic water, the higher concentration of solutes outside the celery cells would cause water to move out of the cells, leading to wilting.
What will celery absorb faster warm or cold water?
Celery will absorb water faster in warm water because the molecules of warm water are more energetic and can penetrate the celery cells more quickly. This allows for quicker absorption of water by the celery.
