Solution
The correct option is D They will shrink.
When a cell is kept in a solution which is more concentrated, water comes out of the cell. As a result, the cell shrinks.
Honey, having more sugar in it, is more concentrated compared to the cytoplasm of grape cells. Hence, the grape shrinks because water passes out of it into the honey.
