Answer:
C) Water will move out of the cell.
Explanation:
In microbial growth experiments, when a bacterium is placed in a Petri dish with a solution that contains dissolved salt (NaCl) - a hypertonic solution -, the result will lead to the <u>dehydration and shrinking of the bacterial cell</u>.
This condition will eventually cause the rupture of the cell, resulting in the diffuse of H20 molecules from the plasma membrane, that is, the water moving out of the cell.
