Solution

The correct option is B Exosmosis
Exosmosis is the movement of water from cell to outside through the process of osmosis, while endosmosis means entry of water into the cell through the process of osmosis. Exosmosis will lead to loss of water from plant body and leaves will droop down or wilt, because exosmosis will lead to plasmolysis of protoplasm.
