Turgid. Which, it should be noted is normal for a plant cell due to their near constant uptake of water.

In what plant cell structure is water stored?

Water is stored in the vacuole of a plant cell.


What happens to plant cell in medium concentrated water?

if the plant cell is in concentrated water...it shrinks .i.e the water in plant cell flows out and hence the plant cell loses its turgidity and shrinks.this process is called exosmosis .


Is it a plant cell or a animal cell?

You would first need to explain the characteristics of the organism


What happens when plant is put into water?

If a plant cell is placed in fresh water, there will be a net movement of water into the cell - because the solute concentration inside the cell is greater than outside. This occurs because the system is attempting to reach equilibrium (where the concentrations inside and outside are equal). Unlike an animal cell, a plant cell will not burst when excess water enters the cell. This is because the cell wall helps the plant cell maintain its structure.


What is the job of water molecules in a plant cell?

To bring about all metabolic activities in a plant cell water is essential.


How does the stem cell help the plant?

The cell in the plant stem helps the plant by transporting water and materials throughout the plant.


What does a transport system do in a plant cell?

transports food and water supplies to the plant and cell.


What happens to a animal cell in pure water an explain Why this does not happen in a plant cell?

Similar to placing an animal cell into water, the cell will swell and could burst, depending on the rigidity of the cell wall. This occurs because the osmotic pressure from dissolved solids is greater inside the cell than in the water. This osmotic pressure would then allow a passive diffusion of water into the area of greater solute density and thus expand the volume of the cell until equilibration or bursting.


Explain how pressure operates within a plant cell to help it keep its shape?

The central vacuole in a plant cell stores water and other materials. As it fills up, it becomes more rigid. This helps the plant cell maintain its shape and support the entire plant.


How does hypertonic affect an plant cell?

hypertonic means the cell has too much water, it's become water logged. In an animal cell the cell will rupture, however the cell wall of the plant cell with prevent this from happening and the plant cell with become swollen.


What stores water in a plant cell?

In a plant cell, the vacuole stores water as well as food. The central vacuole stores food and water, but also waste.


If a plant cell is in water will it burst?

NO.
