What do cells contain so that they dont become waterlogged?
In plants, large spaces inside cells called vacuoles can hold water. In animal cells, the cell membrane contains water transporters or water channels that help in removind water if there is too much water inside cells
Is water made of cells?
Water is in fact not made of cells. Water however is a major compound found inside of nearly all cells.
What main solvent is inside all cells?
water, water everywhere
What happens to the xylem system during drought when water is scarce?
Falling moisture levels in the leaf cause the guard cells to change shape, closing the stomata. This reduces water loss from the plant.
What are the two most prevelant substances inside the cells?
Water and protein.
What do cells do in a isotonic solution?
Usually this question is in reference to a RBCs (red blood cells). When there is the same amount of water molecules on the outside of the cell as the inside of the cell, so there is no change in the shape of the cell.
What is the role of guard cells do in the leaf?
Guard cells change shape to open and close stomata. When they are flaccid, the stoma is closed. When they are full of water and firm, the stoma is open. There are 2 guard cells controlling a stoma. Water enters guard cells by osmosis and they change shape.
How does the shape of a cell change in an isotonic solution?
In an isotonic solution the shape of a cell remains unchanged. This is because the movement of water inside the cell equals the movement of water outside the cell.
Is water found in the cell membrane?
The same way that air influences the shape of a balloon. When the cell is in the proper environment water enters the cell and it is the proper shape. When the solute concentration outside the cell is too high the water leaves the cell and it shrivels.
How is water important in the plants shape?
Water is important in the plants shape as the pressure from the water in the cells help to keep the plants shape. When a plant is devoid of water it begins to droop, this means there is no water in the cells to help keep it upright.
How do plant cells react when they are placed in an environment with lower water concentration than inside of the cell?
The cells of a plant change shape depending on the availability of water. The cells and plant take measures to reduce the amount of water loss through their stomata and conserve the water they currently have.

Why do guard cells change shape?
The guard cells become turgid when the plant is well hydrated. The turgidity changes their shape to open the stomata. When the guard cells are flaccid, the stomata close and the plant conserves water.
How can water change the shape of a rock?
Water is made of atoms,these can pound against a rock,gradually removing layers this will change it's shape.
What kind of cells are the strings inside a celery stalk?
To provide a backbone when it grows and to hold it's shape when it comes from the farm to the store or market
