If you place a grape in a large amount of sugar water, what will happen to it and why?

Answer 1

"Hypo to Hyper, like a windshield wiper!"

That's how I learned it.

Everybody likes homeostasis, so when you have an imbalance like too much sugar outside a cell (or in this case, a grape), it will take responsibility and try to fix things by rebalancing the amount of water on both the inside and outside of the cell. It does this by channeling as much water as it can to decrease the concentration of the sugar water.

If you have a very plump grape and suddenly all the juices are taken out of the grape, what happens? Is it still plump?

Answer 2

I disagree.
