Why will external fluid flow into a plant cell? because the external water concentration is greater because the external water concentration is less because the external salt concentration is greater because the external salt concentration is less?

Under normal conditions, water will move from the solution of lower concentration to the solution of higher concentration. This is called the process of osmosis and is driven by the concentration gradient. So I can identify two answers here:

> because the external water concentration is greater

> because the external salt concentration is less
