What is the difference between animal and plant cell in the distilled solution?
In a distilled solution an animal cell will swell and possibly burst. In a distilled solution the cell wall of the plant cell allows the plant cell to retain its shape.
What would happen if a plant parenchyma cell is placed in distilled water?
Plant cells will expand and becomes turgid. The rigid cellulose cell wall expands slightly only which prevents it from bursting. This occurs because osmosis takes place. There is higher water potential outside the cell than that inside of the cell sap therefore, causing water to enter. Therefore, as water flows in, the cell presses on the cell wall creating pressure on the cell wall also known as Turgor pressure. This pressure keeps the plant tissues tirgid.
What happens to a cell if you place it in a distilled and concentrated salt solution?
If you place a cell in a distilled water solution, water will move into the cell by osmosis causing it to swell and possibly burst. In a concentrated salt solution, water will move out of the cell causing it to shrink and potentially die due to dehydration.
Leaf mesophyll cell in distilled water What is the net movement in water?
In a leaf mesophyll cell placed in distilled water, water will move into the cell through osmosis. This is because the cell has a higher solute concentration than the distilled water, creating a concentration gradient that drives the movement of water into the cell.
What happens to plant cells not in distilled water?
When plant cells are not in distilled water, they may experience different effects depending on the surrounding solution's concentration. If placed in a hypertonic solution (higher solute concentration), water will exit the cells, leading to plasmolysis, where the cell membrane pulls away from the cell wall. In a hypotonic solution (lower solute concentration), water will enter the cells, potentially causing them to swell and become turgid. In isotonic conditions, there would be no net movement of water, and the cells would maintain their normal shape and function.
What term describes the condition of plant cells after being placed in distilled water?
Plasmolysis describes the condition of plant cells after being placed in distilled water. In plasmolysis, water exits the cell by osmosis, causing the cell membrane to detach from the cell wall. This results in the cell shrinking and the cytoplasm pulling away from the cell wall.

Why is the water potential of distilled water higher than the water potential of the cytoplasm of the cell?
distilled contain no solute. so, its water potential is constantly 0. plant cell carry out photosynthesis continuously to produce sugar. thus, cytoplasm of plant cell always contain solute that lower the water potential of cytoplasm.
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 .

What happens to a plant cell that does not have enough water?
it dies
What happens if vacuole in a plant cell no longer filler with water?
the cell won't have water when it is needed
What happens when you add distilled water to a slide with a living protist?
Distilled water is almost devoid of free ions and molecules. So, when a living cell like a protist comes in contact with distilled water (which is hypotonic), large amounts of water enters the protist body, causing the cell to swell and burst, or suffer lysis.
If a cell in a wet cell battery goes dry can it be revived by adding distilled water?
yes with distilled water
What happens to a cell if you place it in a distilled and concentrated salt solution?

What happens to a cell when it is placed in a medium containing distilled water?
As you know,distilled water is a kind of hypotonic solution which means it comprises more water.If you place an animal cell into an hypotonic solution,the cell swells and finally becomes burst because of not having a rigid cell wall.Nevertheless,if you place a plant cell an hypotonic solution,it can resist the osmotic pressure due to having a rigid cell wall.As,cell wall serves turgor pressure,it assists cell not to swell and burst
