Cells let water in or out of there systems through a process called osmosis.
Osmosis is the movement of water across a cell membrane from high concentration to low concentration.
If there is a higher concentrations of solute ( a substance that isn't water ex. salt) in the cell, the water will move into the cell. The cell will eventually fill with water and burst
If the is a higher concentration of water in the cell than in the enviroment, water will move out of the cell and the cell will eventually shrink and shrivel
If it's a plant cell it needs good, fully-functioning palisade cells to let water flow in and out. A plant cell needs to be turgid so that the plant have a support and structure.
"Hurry up, sister! Let's make some new cells."
Water itself is not made of cells. Cells are the basic unit of life that make up living organisms, while water is a chemical compound composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O). Cells contain water and require it for their survival, but water alone does not have cells.
YES!!! Cells DO need water to survive!
Cytoplasm carries food and water to the cells.
They let water flow through the cells.
It's one of these answers: a. The red blood cells will absorb water and increase in size. b. The red blood cells will lose water and decrease in size. c. The red blood cells will first absorb water, then lose water and maintain their normal size. d. The red blood cells will first lose water, then absorb water, and finally double in size. A is wrong, just let you know. Still trying to figure out the answer myself.
Salt controls water absorption so the cells would gain water.
cells get most of their water doing what
Because cell always need water let cell keep equal and healthy.
Human cells get water from capillaries.
In a sense. Many cells are surrounded by water.
Unlike animal cells, plant cells are unable to control the compostiton of fluid around their cell. Plant cells are normally permanetly bathed in almost pure water, which is constantly absorbed from the plants roots. Water entering a plant cell by osmosis causes the protoplast to swell and press on the cell wall. Because the cell wall is capable of only very limited expansion, a pressure builds up on it that resists the entry of further water. However animal cells do not have this ability and let constant water in, causing it to burst.

the cells fill with water
