    The inside of the celery stick is hypertonic to the freshwater outside of the celery stick. The inside also has a lower water potential the outside, and water always moves from high water potential to low water potential. Water will enter the celery cells, causing them to experience turgor pressure, and therefore become turgid and harder.
