N the northern United States where snow and ice create dangerous road conditions in the winter, the Department of Public Transportation often salt roads, which encourages melting. How could salting the roads have and impact on the plant life that live on the edge of the road? Plant cells will lose water due to osmosis.

Plant cells will gain water due to osmosis.

Plant cells will use the salt to grow taller.

There would be no impact.

Plant cells will lose water due to osmosis

Explanation:

Osmosis uses a concentration gradient. Water travels from areas of high concentration to low concentration. The salted road has low water concentration while the plants near the edge have a higher water concentration. The water will leave the plants and go to the salted road. Using common sense, if you sprinkle salt on a snail, it dehydrates and dies. Same thing happens here. The salt sucks the water out.

this is math not biology xd

idk lol use google m8
