What kind of diffution takes place when plant cell absorbs water?
The plant cell absorbs water by simple diffusion and osmosis.
What part of a root hair cell takes water out of the ground?
my sexy lips
Which of the organelles takes up the majority of the volume of the plant cell and is used for food and water storage?
Most plant cells, at maturity, have a single vacuole that takes up anywhere from 30 to 80 percent of the cell's volume. This vacuole holds water, and contributes to the structure and firmness of the plant. Smaller vacuoles often hold food for the cell.
What takes place in plant cell?
photosynthesis takes place in plant cells
What does the cloroplast do in the plant cell?
Takes water, carbon dioxide and photons of light to make sugars that the plant uses for fuel, storage and construction.
What happens to plant cells when placed in a hypotonic solution?
When a plant cell is placed in an hypotonic solution it becomes swollen and hard. The cell takes in water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting.
Were in the plant cell does photosynthisis take place?
Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts of a plant cell
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.
Provides storage for plant cellstake up most of the plant cell inside?
what provides storage for plant cells and takes up most of the plant cell inside
What large structure in a plant cell helps it maintain its turgor pressure?
There is a large vacuole present in the middle of the cell that is full of cell sap (a solution of solutes dissolved within water ,negative water potential,) when the plant cell takes up water the water defuses into the vacuole across the concentration gradient (high concentration to low concentration of water) and the vacuole becomes turgid thus making the cell turgid.
