When a plant with flexible cell walls is placed in a hypertonic solution what happens?
The plant with flexible cell walls when placed in a hypertonic solution tends to grow larger in size by uptaking the solution by the principle of osmosis where molecules from higher concentration moves to a region of lower concentration and this happens in the cell through small minute pores present in the cell walls.
Why does a plant like celery get limp when placed in hypertonic solution?
Because a hypertonic solution will take away the water from the plant, making the plant limp.
What do you call it when a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution?
yes...when placed in a hypertonic solution, it goes shrinks (plasmolysis).
What happens to plant cells in a hypnotic solution?
In a hypotonic solution, plant cells experience an influx of water due to osmosis, causing them to swell. The central vacuole fills with water, creating turgor pressure against the cell wall, which helps maintain the cell's shape and structural integrity. This turgidity is essential for plant rigidity and overall health. However, if the pressure becomes too great, there is a risk of the cell wall rupturing, although plant cells are generally well adapted to handle such conditions.
When can tell that plant cells are undergoing osmosis without using a scale?
You can tell that plant cells are undergoing osmosis if they swell or shrink. When plant cells are placed in a hypertonic solution, they lose water and shrink. Conversely, when they are placed in a hypotonic solution, they gain water and swell. These changes in cell size indicate that osmosis is occurring.
What happens to plant cells when placed in a hypotonic solution?
When a plant cell is placed in an hypotonic solution it becomes swollen and hard. The cell takes in water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting.
What happens to both plant and animal cells when they are placed into a solution that is hypotonic?
Both types of cells will have endo-osmosis and will become turgid

What happens when a non woody plant is placed in saltwater?
It is gonna sink as the non woody plant cannot float.It is also gonna spoil as it is placed in saltwater.
How will a plant cell respond differently than a animal cell?
It will not burst when placed in a dilute solution.

Conversely, when they are placed in a hypotonic solution, they gain water and swell. These changes in cell size indicate that osmosis is occurring.
What would happen if a plant was placed in hypotonic solution?
Nothing would happen to the plant. It will have a normal growth provided other parameters are normal.
WHAT happen if plant cell is placed n hyper tonic solution?
If a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will move out of the cell due to the higher concentration of solutes in the surrounding solution. This loss of water can cause the cell to shrink and undergo plasmolysis, which may ultimately lead to cell death.
Why does a plant cell lose water by osmosis when put in a concentrated solution?
Not just plant cells, all cells with semi-permeable membranes loose water when placed in a more highly concentrated solution.
