Question

A plant cell placed in a solution with a higher water potential will _____.?

Answer 1

...Take in water through the semi permeable membrane enlarging the cell.

Answer 2

Water moves from places where there is more to where there is less; therefore, it would diffuse into the cell. This would cause it to become turgid, which could potentially burst it.

Note: Turgid means the plant cell pushes its contents against the cell wall in attempts to avoid bursting or dying, though it still could occur.

Answer 3

Water will move into the cell by osmosis causing the cell to become turgid. The turgid cell may burst.
