Expansion of water as it freezes ruptures the cell walls.
water is less dense as a solid than as a liquid
A condition that causes cells to swell and burst is called cytolysis. This occurs when there is an influx of water into the cell, typically due to a hypotonic environment where the solute concentration outside the cell is lower than inside. The excess water causes the cell to swell and can ultimately lead to its rupture.
Yes, ice crystals form and burst the cells.
The scientific term for when cells swell and burst is "lysis". This can occur due to factors such as osmotic imbalance or physical damage to the cell membrane.
After bursting from red blood cells, spores released by Plasmodium (malaria parasite) enter other red blood cells to continue the infection cycle. They invade new cells, replicate, and eventually burst out to infect more cells, causing the cycle of infection to continue.

The chemical and biochemical reaction that cause spoilage are slowed down to the point they effectively stop. Many microorganisms are killed at these temperatures as ice crystals burst their cells (but these ice crystals also burst cells in the food, which causes other damage that degrades the quality of frozen foods).
NO.
If the all burst ... yes. But if just a few burst ... no, it happens all the time.
You should drink about 64 ounces of water a day. There is a such thing as water poisoning. It surrounds your cells with too much water, and it causes them to burst.
When animal cells burst it's called lysis.
Yes, ice crystals form and burst the cells.
When red blood cells (RBCs) are placed in a hypotonic solution, water moves into the cells due to a higher concentration of solutes inside the cell. This causes the cells to swell and potentially burst, a process known as hemolysis.
viruses replicate inside respiratory cells.
The scientific term for when cells swell and burst is "lysis". This can occur due to factors such as osmotic imbalance or physical damage to the cell membrane.
High temperatures: Causes protein denaturation (unravelling) and cell membranes to effectively burst. Freezing: Cuts off blood supply by vasoconstriction leading to frostbite or localised cellular damage by causing cells to burst upon reheating.
animal cells do no burst because the semi permiable membrane lets little water in so the cell does not become turgid.
