Vacuoles store water and dissolved minerals in a cell. Vacuoles are sac-like structures that are surrounded by a membrane and are found in plant and fungi cells.

In which organelle would water and dissolved minerals be stored?

Water and dissolved minerals would be stored in the central vacuole in plant cells. This large organelle helps maintain turgor pressure in the cell, stores nutrients and waste products, and can also act as a temporary storage for water and minerals.


What would happen if a cell containing many disolved solutes was placed in pure water?

The cell would undergo osmosis, which is the movement of water from an area of high concentration (pure water outside the cell) to an area of low concentration (inside the cell with dissolved solutes). This would cause the cell to swell and potentially burst if the water influx is too rapid.


Oceans are an example of a what solution?

I think hypertonic. Water would try to leave a cell placed in a solution of such a high salt concentration to try and compensate and would then shrink the cell.


What would happen if one were to add a solute to water?

Adding a solute to water can result in the solute dissolving to form a homogeneous mixture called a solution. The solute particles will disperse throughout the water, leading to an increase in the overall volume of the resulting solution due to the solute particles occupying space between water molecules.


What are the substances in foods that provide energy and materials for cell development?

Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are the main substances in foods that provide energy for the body. Additionally, vitamins, minerals, and water are essential for cell development and overall health.

What part of the plant cell contains water and dissolved minerals?

The vacuole. In the plant cell, there is only one vacuole that is filled with fluid and helps to maintain the shape of the cell. In the animal cell, the vacuole helps with digestion by filling with food and waste material.


What does a vacuole do in a animal and a plant cell?

The vacuole stores food, water, wastes and minerals

Part of the cell is mostly water and minerals called the cell membrane


Which plant cell structure stores large amounts of chemicals including salts minerals proteins and water and helps maintain its shape?

The plant cell structure that stores large amounts of chemicals and maintains shape is the vacuole cell wall. The chemicals that the vacuole stores include salts, minerals, proteins, and water.


What stores water and dissolved materials in plant cells?

The vacuole is responsible for storing water and dissolved materials in plant cells. It helps to maintain turgor pressure to keep the cell rigid and provide support for the plant. The vacuole also plays a role in storing waste products and maintaining the pH balance within the cell.


What does a xylem cell do?

Xylem cells carry water and nutrients from the roots to other parts of a plant.
