Because a hypertonic solution will take away the water from the plant, making the plant limp.
What else can I help you with?
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).
Which solution would most likely cause a plant placed in it to become firmer and more rigid?
hypertonic
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.
What would occur if a plant cell were placed into a strong hypertonic solution?
Your large intestine would take in the water and it would give you diarrhea.
What would happen to a plant cell if it was placed into a beaker containing a hypertonic solution?
The plant cell would lose water through osmosis and shrink in size due to the higher concentration of solutes in the hypertonic solution compared to the cell. This process is called plasmolysis, and it can lead to wilting of the plant cell.

hypertonic
How does being placed in a hypertonic solution affect a plant?
Being placed in a hypertonic solution causes water to move out of the plant cells by osmosis, leading to loss of turgor pressure and wilting of the plant. This can disrupt normal cellular functions and potentially lead to cell death if the plant is not able to recover by accessing more water.
The shrinking of a plant cell membrane away from the cell wall when placed in a hypertonic solution is called?
The shrinking of a plant cell membrane away from the cell wall when placed in a hypertonic solution is plasmolysis

What happent to a plant cell when placed in isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic solutions?
When placed in an isotonic solution nothin will happen to the cell, but when placed in a hypotonic solution the cell will implode (not explode, thus the water will push the cell on itself until implosion occurs.) Last but not least a hypertonic solution will cause the cell to explode by too much water entering the cell because there is already more water in the cell then in the solution. So the simple answer is: Isotonic solution= nothing, hypotonic solution= implosion, and hypertonic solution= explosion.

What does plasmolysis explain?
Plasmolysis explains the process in plant cells where the cell membrane detaches from the cell wall due to water loss, leading to the shrinking of the cell contents. This occurs when a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, causing water to move out of the cell.
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 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.
What is plasymolysis?
Plasmolysis is the process in which a plant cell loses water and shrinks away from the cell wall when placed in a hypertonic solution. This can cause the cell membrane to separate from the cell wall.
