What would happen to an animal cell with an internal salt concentration of 10% if it were placed in a salt solution with a concentration of 30%? O The water would move out of the cell and the cell would decrease in size.

O The water would move into the cell and the cell would increase in size.

O The salt would move into the cell and the cell would increase in size.

O The salt would move out of the cell and the cell would decrease in size..

The water would move out of the cell and the cell would decrease in size.

Explanation:

This question is depicting OSMOSIS, which is the movement of water from a region of high concentration (low solute concentration) to a region of low concentration (high solute concentration) across a semi-permeable membrane. This movement is caused when a concentration gradient forms between the two sides of the membrane.

In this case, an animal cell contains an internal salt concentration of 10% while the salt solution has a concentration of 30%. This means that the animal cell is hypotonic (contains high water concentration) to the salt solution, hence, water would move out of the cell and the cell would decrease in size
