The vacuoles are larger in plants and not so large in mammals. They tend to try to retain more fluid for survival and when that amount is depleted, it is far more noticeable and they appear wilted until they can rejuvenate through rain, ground water et cetera.

Why does flooding with sea water cause plants to wilt?

Sea water consists of large amounts of salt water. The prossess of osmosis makes the concentration of water equal on both sides. So when you add salt water to plants, the pant cells have a higher concentration of water inside the cell than outside so through passive transport the water inside the cell goes into the enviorment. Thus leaving not alot of water if any in the cell which casuses the cells to die, which causes the plant to die.


Do plants droop from too much water or too little?

Plants generally droop from too much water due to root rot, as excessive water can suffocate the roots and prevent them from absorbing oxygen.
