How does a wilted plant drink?
It takes in water by osmosis. This is why a wilted plant or even a wilted stalk of celery will become firm again if given water.
Opening and closing of stomata is achieved by the guard cells?
Yes, that's correct. Guard cells regulate the opening and closing of stomata through changes in their turgor pressure. When the guard cells take up water and become turgid, they bend outwards, causing the stomatal pore to open. Conversely, when they lose water and become flaccid, the stomatal pore closes.
Why is the potatoes soaked in concentrated salt solution becomes flaccid?
The potatoes become flacid because the salt water drins out the moisture from the cells of the potatoes. This process is called exo-osmosis . The cells lose their turgidity and hence the potatoes become flacid :)
How does a Wilted plant drink water?
A wilted plant can absorb water through its roots via a process called osmosis. Water is essential for maintaining turgor pressure in plant cells, which helps to keep the plant upright and rigid. When a plant is wilted, providing it with water allows the cells to regain turgidity and the plant to become upright again.
What are the relation of osmosis and guard cells in plants?
Osmosis is the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane, which plays a crucial role in the functioning of guard cells in plants. Guard cells surround stomata and regulate their opening and closing by controlling water uptake through osmosis. When guard cells absorb water, they become turgid, causing the stomata to open for gas exchange; conversely, when they lose water, they become flaccid, leading to stomatal closure. This process helps maintain water balance and optimize photosynthesis while minimizing water loss.
Why does salad become soggy and wilted when the dressing has been on it for a while Explain in terms of osmosis?
It is the same with cereal with milk because when u poor the dressins the lettuce gets wet and soak
Why do lettuce leaves become soggy after they have beenin salty salad dressing for a while?
because the molecules react with each other and i don't know about osmosis.
What happens to cells as a result of osmosis?
they become turgid.
Why do lettuce leaves become wilted after they have been in salty salad dressing for awhile?
Lettuce becomes wilted after being in salty salad dressing for a long time because of osmosis. The water inside the cells of the lettuce leaves and is replaced with the salt in the salad dressing.
Explain why limp carrot sticks become crisp and your fingers becomes wrinkle when placed in hot water?
It is because of osmosis. Water enters the carrot cells whereas it travels in the opposite direction in your finger.
What are some possible reasons for ranch dressing to become runny?
Ranch dressing can become runny due to factors like temperature changes, expiration, or separation of ingredients.
In osmosis Jones after germs enter the blood stream whose problem do they become?
They become Immunity's Problem.
What helps wilted plants become through osmosis?
If you put them into pure water, they will become firm again.
What help wilted plant become firm through osmosis?
If you put them into pure water, they will become firm again.
How does osmosis explain sugar on strawberries?
Osmosis explains the process by which sugar molecules move from an area of high concentration (syrup) to an area of low concentration (strawberries). When strawberries are placed in sugar syrup, water inside the strawberries moves out through osmosis to balance the concentration, causing the strawberries to absorb the sugar and become sweeter.
What happens to the popped popcorn if the bag is not opened for awhile?
The popcorn will become cold.
What is the hypothesis of osmosis lab elodea leaf?
The hypothesis of an osmosis lab with an Elodea leaf could be that the Elodea leaf will lose water and shrink when placed in a hypertonic solution due to water moving out of the leaf cells by osmosis, causing the cells to become flaccid. Conversely, if the Elodea leaf is placed in a hypotonic solution, it may gain water, swell, and become turgid as water moves into the leaf cells via osmosis.
