What else can I help you with?
What structure around the outside of the plant cell keeps them from rupturing from too much water?
Cell Wall
Why do onion cells not rupture when placed in distilled water?
Onion cells have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose that provides support and protection against osmotic changes. When placed in distilled water, the cell wall prevents the cell from bursting by maintaining its structural integrity. The cell wall is permeable to water, allowing water to enter the cell and create turgor pressure, but the cell wall prevents excessive uptake of water that would cause the cell to burst.
Is water permeable to the cell wall?
Yes, water is permeable to the cell wall. The cell wall allows water to pass through via osmosis, which is the movement of water molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. This helps maintain the cell's internal environment.
Which organelle gives the plant cell its shape?
The cytoskeleton gives mechanical support to the cell and maintain its shape.
What part of a cell prevents water from entering the call?
The cell membrane or cell wall.
What can you conclude about plant and animals cell organelles?
They are both cells that have incredible organelles that benefit them, like how the cell wall provides a barrier for the plants, and vacuoles serve to store water and food in both plant and animal cells.
What structure around the outside of the plant cell keeps them from rupturing from too much water?
Cell Wall
What does cell wall do in the cell?
The cell wall prevents the cell from exploding! The pressure from the water, within the plant cell is so great that without the wall, it would simply explode.

What do you understand by roughage in the animal food?
an indigestible cell wall of plant cell that animals take in as food.
What is the cell wall responible for in the cell wall?
Making sure the cell doesn't burst by absorbing too much water.
Why do plant cells have cell walls and a vacuole?
A cell wall provides structure and support in the plant cell. A vacuole contains "cell sap," a mixture of water and glucose sugar, for use as a food source.
This kind of cell has a large central vacuole and a cell wall.?
The kind of cell described is a plant cell. The large central vacuole in a plant cell helps store water, nutrients, and waste products. The cell wall provides structural support and protection for the cell.
What happens to the cell wall in a hypertonic isotonic and hyotonic solution?
In a hypertonic solution, the cell wall will shrink away from the cell membrane due to water leaving the cell. In an isotonic solution, the cell wall maintains its shape as water moves in and out of the cell in equilibrium. In a hypotonic solution, the cell wall will swell as water moves into the cell, increasing the pressure inside the cell.
What part of a plant cell protects the cell from losing water?
cell wall
Is water permeable to the cell wall?
Yes, water is permeable to the cell wall. The cell wall allows water to pass through via osmosis, which is the movement of water molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. This helps maintain the cell's internal environment.
Can you name two organelles that are in a plant cell but not in an animal cell?
Chloroplasts and central vacuoles are organelles found in plant cells but not in animal cells. Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, while central vacuoles store water and contribute to plant cell structure.
