Why can't plasmolysıs take place in an animal cell?

Plasmolysis cannot occur in animal cells because they lack a rigid cell wall, which is essential for this process. Plasmolysis involves the contraction of the cell membrane away from the cell wall due to loss of water in a hypertonic environment. In animal cells, instead of plasmolysis, the cell would shrink and potentially undergo crenation when placed in a hypertonic solution, as there is no cell wall to provide structural support.


Why are plant cells selected to demonstrate plasmolysis rather than animal cells?

Plant cells are selected to demonstrate plasmolysis because they have a cell wall that maintains the structure of the cell even when the cell membrane shrinks due to water loss. Animal cells do not have a cell wall, so they would burst instead of undergoing plasmolysis in a hypertonic solution.

What would happen if you put dragon blood into a human?

Dragon blood is fictional and does not exist in real life. However, in a hypothetical scenario, if you were to introduce dragon blood into a human body, it could potentially lead to severe allergic reactions, poisoning, or even death due to the possible presence of toxins or foreign substances that are incompatible with human physiology.

What would happen to your cell if a hypotonic solution is place directly into your blood stream?

Swell and possibly burst depending on how hypotonic the solution was and how much of it was injected. However the human body has evolved many simple and complex ways to deal with these situations and therefore a small amount of hypotonic solution will likely cause no effect to your cells.
