Imagine an artificial cell made with a selectively permeable memo allow sugar to pass. If you fill this cell with a 1% sugar solution and then you place happens?

A) Water leaves the cell.

B) Sugar diffuses in and water diffuses out until equilibrium is reached.

C) Water does not leave or enter the cell.

D) Water enters the cell.

Option C, Water does not leave or enter the cell.

Explanation:

It is given that the membrane is selectively permeable which means that it will allow passage of intended solute but will not allow passage of any other solute or substance through it.

Here, the artificial cell membrane is allowed to pass sugar thus only sugar will pass through it and no any other substance. Therefore, water will neither move out nor water from outside will be allowed to move inside.

hence, option C is correct
