The internal pressure of a plant cell is called what?

turgor pressure, also turgidity, is the main pressure exerted by cell contents against the cell walls in plant cells


Where does the carbon dioxide and water that are produced during plant respiration go?

The majority of the water is used to make a sugary food called glucose, that is used to feed the plant. The excess glucose is stored in the roots of the plant to provide the plant with nutrients in the spring. The excess water evaporates from small pores within the leaf. That is why greenhouses are often foggy. The small amount of excess carbon dioxide is stored within the plant and is released when the plant dies and decomposes.


What happens to a excess sugar when produced in a plant?

Excess sugar is stored as starch, long chain carbohydrates, in the plant.


Does the stomata in a plant allow excess water vapour to escape from the plant?

Yes, the stomata in a plant allow excess water vapor to escape from the plant through a process called transpiration. This helps in regulating the water balance and preventing the plant from becoming overhydrated. Stomata also play a role in gas exchange, allowing carbon dioxide to enter the plant for photosynthesis.


What is cytololysis?

The disolution or distruction of a cellCytolysis, or osmotic lysis, occurs when a cell bursts due to an osmotic imbalance that has caused excess water to move into the cell. It occurs in a hypotonic environment, where water diffuses into the cell and causes its volume to increase. If the volume of water exceeds the cell membrane's capacity then the cell will burst.The cell will only burst if the cell is an animal cell and it will only expand if it is a plant cell.

Jellyfish are a type of animal called cnidarians, they are related to sea anemones and coral! I have no Idea if it swells and bursts though!


What is guttation?

Guttation is the process by which plants release excess water in the form of droplets through specialized structures called hydathodes. This usually happens at night when transpiration is low and root pressure is high. Guttation droplets can sometimes be mistaken for dew.

What is a young plant that has germinated from a seed?

A young plant growing in the seed is called the embryo. After some days the shoot bursts up from the seed and comes out of the ground. Underneath, the roots come out to transfer water.
