Question
- what would happen if too much water moved out of the cell? *
a) swell
b) shrink
Brief Explanations
When too much water moves out of a cell, the cell loses its internal fluid volume. This process is related to osmosis. A cell swelling would occur if water moves into it (option a is incorrect). When water exits, the cell's contents become more concentrated and the cell's size reduces, which is called shrinking. So the correct option is b.
