What is it called when cells burst because of osmotic pressure?
Cytolysis or Osmotic-lysis
Why doesn't cytolysis happen in elodea?
Cytolysis does not happen in the elodea because of the concentration of its cells. The concentration that surrounds the cells are usually less concentrated and therefore prevent cytolysis from occurring.
What is cytolysis and what caused it?
Cytolysis is a condition where the cells will burst. This is commonly caused by excess water in the cell which results into osmotic imbalance.
What is the bursting of the cell called?
Cytolysis
What is it called when a animal cell swells and bursts when entering water?

The process in which a cell destroys itself for the good of the organism is called c--------?

What is the word that means when a cell swells and burst?
hemolysisSorry hemolysis is the incorrect term for when a cell bursts. It's called cytolysis when cells burst open. Hemolysis is a type of cytolysis, referring to the bursting of red blood cells.
In which type of solution does cytolysis happen to a cell?
Cytolysis is when a cell busts due to an osmosic imbalance that causes extra water to enter into the cell. An example of cytolysis is the result of a stroke due to improper nutrient perfusion and waste removal changing cell metabolism.
What does diffusion across the cell membrane cause?
A change in concentration of solutes on either side of the membrane. Depending on the tonicity of the inner-membrane and the outside of the membrane, plasmolysis or cytolysis may occur.
What is cytolasm?
Actually called cytolysis, versus cytolsus, is also referred to as osmotic lysis. When a cell bursts, caused by an osmotic imbalance, it causes addition water to enter the cell and is called cytolysis.
What is the swelling and rupturing of a cell?
