Solution
B)grape will shrink
The grapes would shrink. The water would seep through the skin of the grape into the sugar water on the outside of the skin. This would happen because of osmosis. Water will travel from low concentrated region to high concentrated region.here sugar solution is highly concentrated.therefore water will flow from grape to the sugar solution.liquidwould do this until the sugar concentrations were even on both sides.and hence the grape will shrink
