Turgid. Which, it should be noted is normal for a plant cell due to their near constant uptake of water.

What does a large vacuole do in a plant cell?
It holds water in the cell for later use.
What are mitochondria in the animal cell?
It is easier to explain the functions of a cell if I explain the parts of it like they were parts of a city. The mitochondria would be the power plant of a city. It is also the power plant of the cell. The mitochondria coverts food that enters the cell into a form that the cell can use.
What is the job of water molecules in a plant cell?
To bring about all metabolic activities in a plant cell water is essential.
What do plant cells have that prevent them from swelling after an intake of too much water?
When a plant cell is full of water. It will get ready to burst. But if it tries to burst it will not. Because of something that a plant cell has. It is a Cell Wall.
Explain why a plant cell classified as a eukaryotic cell?
To explain how a plant cell is eukaryotic rather than prokaryotic, consider the definition of both words. What are the similarities and differences between the two cell types? Here are two places to start: what is found inside each cell type and how does each type reproduce itself?
When a plant needs water it will wilt but the tissues themselves remain rigid explain why?
the cell wall that is made up of cellulose are rigid molecules. If a plant lacks water, the cells inside the cell wall shrivel and die but the wall will stay firm
What is the appearance of a plant cell when water is plentiful?
When water is plentiful, the cell expands so that the plant stands upright. Without water, the cell shrinks, so the plant wilts.When water is plentiful, the cell expands so that the plant stands upright. Without water, the cell shrinks, so the plant wilts.
What happens to plant cell in medium concentrated water?
if the plant cell is in concentrated water...it shrinks .i.e the water in plant cell flows out and hence the plant cell loses its turgidity and shrinks.this process is called exosmosis .
What does a large vacuole do in a plant cell?
It holds water in the cell for later use.
Is it a plant cell or a animal cell?
You would first need to explain the characteristics of the organism

What happens when plant is put into water?
If a plant cell is placed in fresh water, there will be a net movement of water into the cell - because the solute concentration inside the cell is greater than outside. This occurs because the system is attempting to reach equilibrium (where the concentrations inside and outside are equal). Unlike an animal cell, a plant cell will not burst when excess water enters the cell. This is because the cell wall helps the plant cell maintain its structure.

What type of cell has a nucleus and a large vacuole?
A plant cell has a larger vacuole than animal cell. The plant cell needs to store more water for photosyheteis and to keep the rigidy of the cell wall. That's why plants wilt when they don't get enough water.
How does the stem cell help the plant?
The cell in the plant stem helps the plant by transporting water and materials throughout the plant.
What does a transport system do in a plant cell?
transports food and water supplies to the plant and cell.
How does hypertonic affect an plant cell?
hypertonic means the cell has too much water, it's become water logged. In an animal cell the cell will rupture, however the cell wall of the plant cell with prevent this from happening and the plant cell with become swollen.
