The amount of salt on the inside and outside of a cell must be equal for a cell to function properly. As such, if there's too much water inside of a cell, it will leak, and if there's not enough, it will absorb water from its environment to balance out its salinity, or saltiness.

When plant cells are swollen with water they are what?
Plants swell when hypertonic in hypotonic solutions of impermeable materials
Do plant Cells have chloroplasts?
Yes they have chloroplasts. They are used for photosynthsis
What effect does staining have on plant cells?
It will make them stand out more under a microscope
What plant cell is free to differentiate into various kinds of cells?
Meristem cells are undifferentiated cells that can develop into groud, vascular & dermal tissues depending on their location within the plant. In theory most cells can reproduce a full plant through a process known as totipotancy
What are the structures of a plant and animal cells?
Plant and animal cells include cytoplasm and nucleus. Cytoplasm has several cell organells to perform various activities to support life.
What are the effects of hypertonic solutions on living cells?
Hypertonic solutions are solutions that have a higher concentration than that of its immediate environment. The effects of hypertonic solutions on living cells is crenation in animal cells and plasmolysis in plant cells.
How do auxins plants effect plant cells?
bootyThe auxins plants do deform the plant cells.

Storage of various substances in both plant and animal cells?
in the vacuole
Cells that multiply and produce growth at various parts of a plant are what?
meristematic
Explain the effect of penicillin on prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
penicillin destroys the cell wall on prokaryotic cells no effects on animal cells since they don't have a cell wall but might have an effect on plant cells
