what do you predict will happen when a crystal of potassium nitrate is added to the saturated solution as it cooled? what might happen if no crystal were present?

If you add a potassium nitrate and saturated solution you will make a super-saturated solution of potassium nitrate. But what to expect with this process of adding these 2. It is that the result of this solution made/forms bigger crystals that have pointed ends. If there is no appearance of the crystal it shows that the solution is not yet cooled.
