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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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
What would happen if a plant was placed in hypotonic solution?
Nothing would happen to the plant. It will have a normal growth provided other parameters are normal.

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
If placed in a hypotonic solution a plant cell will?
No, because the plant cell contains a cell wall which causes the plant cell not to burst. But, it will gain water until it cannot take anymore and the pressure will prevent more water from entering.

Why does it matter if the root is in a hypertonic or hypotonic solution?
The tonicity of a solution matters because it affects the movement of water into or out of the root cells. If the root is in a hypertonic solution, water will tend to leave the root cells, leading to dehydration. In a hypotonic solution, water will enter the root cells, potentially causing them to swell and burst. Both scenarios can impact the root's ability to absorb nutrients and carry out essential functions for the plant.
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
