How does being placed in a hypertonic solution affect a plant?
Being placed in a hypertonic solution causes water to move out of the plant cells by osmosis, leading to loss of turgor pressure and wilting of the plant. This can disrupt normal cellular functions and potentially lead to cell death if the plant is not able to recover by accessing more water.
What does turgor pressure do for plant?
Inside most plant cells is a central water vacuole. The cell uses osmotic pressure to bring water into the cell. When the water vacuoles of the plant are filled with water it is said to have high turgor pressure.
Why do plant cells become turgid?
Plant cells have a strong cell wall surrounding them. When the take in water by osmosis they start to swell, but the cell wall prevents them from bursting. Plant cells become "turgid" when they are put in dilute solutions. Turgid means swollen and hard. The pressure inside the cell rises, eventually the internal pressure of the cell is so high that no more water can enter the cell. This liquid or hydrostatic pressure works against osmosis. Turgidity is very important to plants because this is what make the green parts of the plant "stand up" into the sunlight.
How many cells are there in a plant?
There are millions to billions of cells in a plant, varying depending on the plant species and size. Plant cells are organized into tissues, which then make up different plant organs like leaves, stems, and roots.
Which of the following is a characteristic of plant cells but not of animal cells?
A cell wall that keeps the plant rigidly upright through turgor pressure. Chloroplasts, so the plant can make it's own food through photosynthesis. And also large central vacuoles for storage and catabolic activities.
When water moves into a plant cell by osmosis the internal turgor pressure developed pushes on the wall. What does this do to your understanding of a neglected house plant?
If a neglected house plant does not receive enough water, it can lead to a decrease in turgor pressure within the plant cells. This can cause the plant to wilt as it loses structural support and becomes dehydrated. Regular watering helps maintain turgor pressure and keeps the plant healthy.
What type of cells make up a plant and how?
Embryonic cells make up a plant

Why do animal cells need plant cells?
animal cells can't make their own food, plant cells can so animal cells need to eat plant cells
Do plant cells help make the plants make food?
Yes, plant cells help make food through a process called photosynthesis. Chloroplasts within plant cells contain chlorophyll that captures sunlight, which is then used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar), providing the plant with energy.

What structures are found in plant cells but not in plant cells?
(does not make sense) please specify.
Does plant cells have chloroplast?
yes plant cells have chloroplast because that is how they make their food!!
What are two organelles that make plant cells different from animal cells?
Plant cells have chloroplasts and cell walls.
What food molecule do plant cells make what in sunlight?
Plant cells make glucose through photosynthesis in sunlight.
Can plant cells make food?
No
