What happens to plant cells when you put salt water on them?
When plant cells are exposed to salt water, water moves out of the cells through osmosis, causing the cells to lose turgor pressure and shrink. This process is known as plasmolysis. Continued exposure to salt water can eventually lead to the death of the plant cells.
What are flaccid cells?
Flaccid cells are plant cells that lack turgor pressure, causing them to become limp and wilted. This can be due to a lack of water or a disruption in the osmotic balance within the cell. Flaccid cells can impact the overall structure and function of the plant.
Where does photosynthesis happen in a plant cell?
Photosynthesis happens in the chloroplasts of plant cells. This process uses sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
When does loss of turgor happen?
Loss of turgor typically happens when a plant is deprived of water, causing its cells to lose water pressure and wilt. This can occur during drought conditions or when a plant is not being adequately watered.
What happens to stomata in saline solution?
The stomata are closed when exposed to saline solution or salt water. If a plant is exposed to the salty water it will become dehydrated and eventually die. Uness the plant is a type of mangrove or is salinity tolerant plant.

What happen when they are exposed to water?
what happens when they are exposed to water
What happens to the plant cells when pure water is added?
Because there is more salt in the plant cells, when they are placed in pure water (with no salt), water will move into the cells in an effort to balance the concentration inside the cell and out the cell. The plant cells will become enlarged with water and may burst. This is a way to make wilted celery to become like it did when it was bought.

What happens to plant cells that are put in fresh water?
all it does is nothing really it just dies like osmosis
Do plant cells contain any water?
Yes, plant cells contain plenty of water.
When does loss of turgor happen?
Loss of turgor typically happens when a plant is deprived of water, causing its cells to lose water pressure and wilt. This can occur during drought conditions or when a plant is not being adequately watered.

What is freezing and how does it affect plants?
Freezing is the process in which water turns into ice due to low temperatures. When plants are exposed to freezing temperatures, the water inside their cells can freeze, causing the cells to expand and potentially burst. This can damage the plant's tissues and lead to wilting, browning, and ultimately death of the plant.
What is the long tubular cells that carry water?
Xylem cells are the long tubular cells that carry water and minerals from the roots of a plant to the rest of the plant. These cells are specialized for water transport and provide structural support to the plant.
As a result of the plant reducing water losswhat other process will be slowed down?
If the process of water loss (transpiration) is reduced in plants, the process of water absorption will also be reduced. This happens to maintain an equillebrium in the plant cells.
