wilt and die
When a plant does not get enough water, the cell wall loses turgor pressure, causing it to become flaccid. This can lead to wilting of the plant. Continued lack of water can eventually lead to cell death and damage to the cell wall.
A wilted plant can absorb water through its roots via a process called osmosis. Water is essential for maintaining turgor pressure in plant cells, which helps to keep the plant upright and rigid. When a plant is wilted, providing it with water allows the cells to regain turgidity and the plant to become upright again.
I think its just called plant dehydration because by the plant getting no water, it isn't able to preform osmosis, making the plants' cells shrink. The thing that keeps the plant upright is the cells absorbing water and swelling forcing the plant to stand. without water, the cells shrink and the plant loses its shape and starts to lean to the side.
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.
No, a plant will not wilt in an isotonic solution because the concentration of solutes inside and outside the plant cells is equal, allowing for a balance of water movement into and out of the cells. This prevents excessive water loss or gain that can lead to wilting.

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.
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.

Yes, plant cells contain plenty of water.
When a plant cell loses water it will undergo a condition called plasmolysis. This condition only happens in the extreme condition and rarely happens in the natural conditions.
Plant cells react in many ways. Because of its rigid structure, the plant cell will not just melt, it will just begin to cave in. For example... ------------------------------- I I I I I __________________I If this is the cell's structure, the top layer will cave in like this... ---\ /------- I \ / I I I I__________ You get my point!!!
