Question

When a grape is placed in concentrated sugar solution, then it will show

• A. Endosmosis
• B. Exosmosis
• C. Imbibition
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Exosmosis

When a grape is placed in a solution of concentrated sugar solution, it will show the process of exosmosis and lose water. When a cell is kept in hypertonic solution, it readily crosses the cell wall and fills the space between the cell wall and cell membrane. This hypertonic solution in direct contact with the cell membrane causes plasmolysis and extracts water from the cytoplasm of the cell.

So, the correct answer is option B.
