Osmosis occurs when there is a different concentration of solute molecules
on each side of the membrane. The drawing below shows a beaker containing
a 30% salt solution and a suspended cell containing a 10% salt solution. What statement explains what happens to the cell after 20 minutes?

The osmotic potential within the cell is greater than the outside because the solution in the cell is less concentrated. Therefore, the water from inside the cell will move outwards due to the difference in potential via the process of osmosis. The cell becomes plasmolysed, or shrinks, due to the loss of water.
