Carrot sticks that are immersed in fresh water for several hours become stiff. Similar carrot sticks left in a salt solution become limp. From this we can deduce that the cytoplasm of the cells of the carrot stick is:     Isotonic with the fresh water but hypotonic to the salt solution     Hypotonic to both the fresh water and the salt solution     Hypertonic to both the fresh water and the salt solution     Hypertonic to the fresh water, but hypotonic to the salt solution     Hypotonic to the fresh water, but hypertonic to the salt solution
