Salt draws water from plant cells. This causes the cells to dehydrate and the plant to shrivel up and die.
Nothing would happen because the plant cell has a cell wall and it will protect it from shriveling up or dying.
Water potential of the water inside the cells is higher that the water potential of the water outside the cells. (That would means the concentration of "pure" water inside the cells are higher than that outside the cells) Water moves from an higher water potential to an lower water potential. Thus Plasmolysis of the cells will take place. Which means the Nucleus,Vacuole and all the other cellular material will move from the inside of the cell to the outside.
Well, it would depend on:the species of the plant?if its a soil plant or aquatic plant?well for all intent and purpose, we will say its a regular soil plant cell.No as you must be aware. There are minerals and different types of salts that plants use to grow and mature. But If too much salt, a chemical reaction will occur and kill the leaves of the plant. So back to your question.So, the cell would notice the difference in salinity in the surrounding water andthrough osmosis try to create homeostasis. But if the water saline solution is too much for the plant cell, the cell won't survive.But if the solution is not in a toxic saline level, the plant will survive for a while.but you should really read this article.it explains a bit more.=)http://www.sebiology.org/publications/Bulletin/July05/salinity.html
When a living plant cell loses water through osmosis, it becomes flaccid or plasmolyzed, causing the cell to shrink away from the cell wall. This phenomenon is known as plasmolysis. The cell membrane detaches from the cell wall due to the water loss, leading to a loss of turgor pressure and potential wilting of the plant.
Because there is a less concentration of solutes in the cell, the rules of osmosis will let water out of the cell to try to "even it out". The cell will then dehydrate and the c entral vacuole will shrink, then the cell will collapse (which is called plasmolysis). -SkyCrystal

It can possibly burst.
Freshwater amoeba placed in salty water would experience water leaving their cells through osmosis, leading to dehydration, shrinkage, and eventually cell death. The high salt concentration outside the amoeba would create a hypertonic environment, causing water to flow out of the cell to try to balance the concentration difference.
Xylem cells carry water and nutrients from the roots to other parts of a plant.

When a plant cell is placed in salt water, water will flow out of the cell by osmosis, causing the cell to shrink and potentially wilt. This is because the salt concentration outside the cell is higher than inside, leading to a loss of water from the cell. Ultimately, the plant cell may become dehydrated and die if it cannot access adequate water to maintain its internal structures.

If a plant cell is placed in a solution with a lower concentration of water (hypertonic solution), water will move out of the cell through osmosis. This causes the cell to lose turgor pressure, leading to wilting or plasmolysis, where the cell membrane pulls away from the cell wall. Ultimately, the plant may experience stress and reduced ability to photosynthesize if the condition persists.

Water is stored in the vacuole of a plant cell.
i feel a plant cell wall provides shape and it is a form of protection for the cell
if the plant cell is in concentrated water...it shrinks .i.e the water in plant cell flows out and hence the plant cell loses its turgidity and shrinks.this process is called exosmosis .
