What else can I help you with?
When plant is place in hypotonic solution?
the plant cell shrinks and this is because concentration is high in the solution and less in plant cell
Which kind of cell has more clearly defined boundaries?
Plant cells have more clearly defined boundaries due to their rigid cell walls made of cellulose. Animal cells have a flexible cell membrane but lack a rigid cell wall, making their boundaries less distinct in comparison.
What is the size of a plant cell vacuole?
The size of a plant cell vacuole can vary depending on the type of plant and its physiological state. Generally, plant cell vacuoles can range from being a few micrometers to occupying up to 90% of the cell's volume.
What does osmosis do to plant and animal cells in pure water?
Plant cells have a strong rigid cell wall on the outside of the cell membrane. This stops the cell bursting when it absorbs water by osmosis. The increase in pressure makes the cell rigid. This is useful as plants do not have a skeleton. Instead the leaves and shoots can be supported by the pressure of water in their cells. If plant cells lose too much water by osmosis they become less rigid and eventually the cell membrane shrinks away from the cell wall.
What dose an animal cell have that a plant cell dose not have?
An animal cell actually has less things than plant cells. Plant cells have cell walls used to hold the cells up and keep them sturdy while animal cells do not because it would make animals too stiff to move. Plant cells have the cell walls because they need to stand up and don't need to move.
Why do plant Cells have Cell walls and animal Cells have Cell coats?
The plant's cell wall protects the cell from damage (the plant cells are less fragile than animal cells and less flexible).Plant and bacterial cell walls provide intense strength using cellulosic materials. Some animal cells equally require this same strength yet they utilize a sugar-protein [glycocallyx] cell coat.

How does the cell wall limit the cell?
A cell wall makes a cell more rigid and makes it less permeable which is beneficial as it can prevent stuff from easily flowing in or escaping.
What are the main differences between plant and animal cells?
Plants cells have chloroplasts and cell walls. Animal cells have centrioles, lysosomes and lack cell walls and chloroplasts. Also, animal cells usually have smaller vacuoles while plant cell have one large main vacuole
Why do plants have cell walls while animals do not?
Because plants do not move, they need something to keep them from flapping around. They do not have bones because they do not need to endure so much interaction with their world. They have a cell wall because it also helps them to stay more firm and stay put so that if a wind blows, one part of the plant is in the soil and the other part is at a whole new block. Also because the plant cell is full of water, that is what makes the plant "Perky". When the plant needs water, the cells releases it, and that makes the cell walls less firm. The result it that there is not as much pressure on the wall of the cell and the plant droops. As soon as you water the plant, the cells will fill up, and the plant will perk up again.
What is the size of a plant cell vacuole?

Why are kids more flexible?
As a child grows, some bones start fusing together. This makes the person less flexible.
Do plant and animal cells have the same parts?
Plant and animal cells have some parts in common, such as a cell membrane, nucleus, and cytoplasm. However, plant cells have additional structures like a cell wall, chloroplasts for photosynthesis, and a large central vacuole. Additionally, animal cells have structures like centrioles that are not typically found in plant cells.
If you have a plant in water what will happen to the water?
there wil be a lot less than there was starting with because the plant uses the water for part of photosynthesis, it takes sun light, water and co2(carbon dioxide) and makes o2( oxygen) and energy for the cell(which makes up your body so it gives your body energy)
What happened when plant is place in hypertonic environment?
A hypertonic environment contains a higher concentration solutes then do the interior of the cell. This causes the water within the cell to move through the membrane and makes the cell shrink. A hypotonic solution has the opposite effect. The cell will swell and even explode (lysis).
