Answer:

Submerged in a HYPOTONIC solution causing turgor pressure.

Step-by-step explanation:

HYPERtonic causes water to leave the cell. This harms the plant!

Hypotonic does the opposite.

Turgor pressure is important to keep the plant from wilting. Turgor keeps the water in plants.

Hope this is correct. Wishing you the best.
