If a plant does not get enough water what happens to the cell wall?
When a plant does not get enough water, the cell wall loses turgor pressure, causing it to become flaccid. This can lead to wilting of the plant. Continued lack of water can eventually lead to cell death and damage to the cell wall.
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.
What happens to cells in freshwater?
In freshwater, animal cells will tend to take in water due to osmosis, potentially causing them to swell and burst if not regulated by cell membrane mechanisms. In contrast, plant cells have a rigid cell wall that prevents them from bursting, but they will still take in water and may become turgid or swollen.
What if the plant cell don't have cell wall?
Without a cell wall a plant cell will not be stable, because a cell wall provides a cell with structural support and protection. A cell wall acts as a pressure vessel, preventing over-expansion when water enters 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 happens to the cell wall?
Nothing,
What does the cell wall prevent lysis of?
The cell wall prevents the cell from bursting because of a hypotonic environment, meaning that there is a high concentration of water moving into the cell that may have a lower concentration of water, by diffusion. When this happens, the cell may burst resulting in the destruction of the cell. the cell wall has interwoven fibers, preventing lysis.
What happens in a animal cell in pure water an why does this not happen in a plant cell?
It can possibly burst.
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.

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.
What is the cell wall responible for in the cell wall?
Making sure the cell doesn't burst by absorbing too much water.
What happens to cells in freshwater?
In freshwater, animal cells will tend to take in water due to osmosis, potentially causing them to swell and burst if not regulated by cell membrane mechanisms. In contrast, plant cells have a rigid cell wall that prevents them from bursting, but they will still take in water and may become turgid or swollen.
What part of a plant cell protects the cell from losing water?
cell wall
What if the plant cell don't have cell wall?
Without a cell wall a plant cell will not be stable, because a cell wall provides a cell with structural support and protection. A cell wall acts as a pressure vessel, preventing over-expansion when water enters the cell.
