Cells swell or shrink when placed in rainwater or seawater due to osmosis, which is the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane. In hypotonic solutions like rainwater (lower solute concentration), water enters the cell, causing it to swell. Conversely, in hypertonic solutions like seawater (higher solute concentration), water leaves the cell, leading to shrinkage. This process is driven by the concentration gradient of solutes inside and outside the cell.
The substance dissolved in a liquid is called the solute.
Distilled water is least likely to be rainwater, as it is purified through a process of distillation that removes impurities and minerals present in rainwater.
A solute is a substance that dissolves in a solvent to form a solution. The solvent is the substance that dissolves the solute to create the solution.
The solvent dissolves the solute. (The solute dissolves in the solvent.)
