Nothing would happen to the plant. It will have a normal growth provided other parameters are normal.

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.
What happent to a plant cell when placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions?
When placed in an isotonic solution nothin will happen to the cell, but when placed in a hypotonic solution the cell will implode (not explode, thus the water will push the cell on itself until implosion occurs.) Last but not least a hypertonic solution will cause the cell to explode by too much water entering the cell because there is already more water in the cell then in the solution. So the simple answer is: Isotonic solution= nothing, hypotonic solution= implosion, and hypertonic solution= explosion.
A plant cell placed in a hypotonic solution will not lyse because?
The cell wall prevents the plant cell from bursting.
If a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution water moves into the cell and collects in?
It probably collects in the plant cell vacuoles.
When a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution the cell wall prevents?
The plant cell wall helps prevent bursting. When placed in a hypotonic solution, water will enter the cell, because the concentration of solutes inside the cell is greater than outside. The cell wall helps to support the cell, and maintain rigidity.
What happens to both plant and animal cells when they are placed into a solution that is hypotonic?
Both types of cells will have endo-osmosis and will become turgid
Does placing plant cells in a hypotonic solution causes the osmotic pressure to increase?
When a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the osmotic pressure tends to increase as the water in the cells moves to a place elevated in solute concentration. The osmotic pressure is the chief cause of support in numerous plants.
What happens to a plant cell if it is place in a hypotonic solution?
Osmosis works for any type of cell. Because of a lower concentration of solute inside the cell then out, the water would rush to where the solute is in an attempt to make it even. It would retain its shape because of its cell wall making it rigid which is absent in animal cells which is prone to swelling and making it burst.
What is deplasmolysis?
When a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution then plant cell gains water by osmosis there is swelling of the contents of the cell away from the cell wall ,this phenomenon is known as deplasmolyzis
When plant is place in hypotonic solution?
the plant cell shrinks and this is because concentration is high in the solution and less in plant cell
Why plant cell does not burst if placed constantly in hypotonic solution?
well the cell walls prevent the cell from expanding but it does cause little damage to the cell wall
What correctly describes the normal tonicity conditions for typical plant and animal cells?
The animal cell is in an isotonic solution, and the plant cell is in a hypotonic solution
