    Answer:The reason for the plant that its leaf got wilted after being watered with salty water is that salty water is so dense that it does not allows for osmosis through the plant tissues ans eventually it dehydrates the plant by actually taking water out of the plant.

    There are chances that the salt water can be poisonous to the plant. Too much salt interferes in the chemical processes which the plant uses to spread the nutrients in the plant. This can kill the plant.

    The plant wilted as the salt absorbed all the water in the large vacuole. For which it shrunk making the plant wilt
