Why water moves into a cell from outside

Sagot :

Answer:

Water moves into a cell from outside because the pores in the cell membrane to equalise the concentration gradient.

Since there is more salt on the outside, there must be less water on the outside. Thus the water inside the cell moves to the outside through the pores in the cell membrane to equalise the concentration gradient (which we call osmosis).
