The answer would letter C.

The freshwater plant placed in a container of saltwater will shrink because water will move out of them. This will happen since the plant comes from low concentration into a high concentration.

To explain this:

  • The plant from a low concentration moves into a salt water which has a higher concentration. Therefore, the water will move out of the plant since this will balance out the concentration difference. This will cause shrinking on the plant.
