Which conditions best model the effects of drought on plant cells?

Dehydration stress caused by drought leads to cell membrane damage, protein denaturation, and oxidative stress in plant cells. In addition, drought can disrupt essential cellular processes such as photosynthesis and nutrient uptake. Finally, prolonged drought conditions can trigger programmed cell death in plants as a survival mechanism.

What are the effects of hypertonic solutions on living cells?

Hypertonic solutions are solutions that have a higher concentration than that of its immediate environment. The effects of hypertonic solutions on living cells is crenation in animal cells and plasmolysis in plant cells.

What are the long term effects of drought?

Human activities increase the harmful effects of prolonged drought by causing the environment difficulty in recovering. For example, if soil is damaged by over-use or over-fertilization, the rains following the drought will cause major mudslides, runoff that pollutes lakes, and even massive erosion.


What factors contribute to the development of low water potential in plant cells?

Factors contributing to low water potential in plant cells include high solute concentration inside the cell, external osmotic pressure, and environmental conditions such as drought or high salinity.


Why does free proline in plants increase under the drought condition?

Because free proline can increase the osmotic potential of cells, promote plant cells absorbing water. When the condition of drought, the increase of Pro can help cells absorb water. Proline acts as an osmoprotectant and that overproduction of proline results in the increased tolerance to osmotic stress in plants. It also enhances root biomass and flower development in transgenic plants under drought-stress conditions.


Why do you think plants cells have bigger vacuoles than animal cells?

it's not really an opinion. Plant cells have bigger vacuoles because they need more space to store water so if there's a drought or anything, the plants will still have water.

What plant cells that are all dried out?

Dried-out plant cells are often referred to as "desiccated" cells. These cells lose water and become shriveled, which can occur due to environmental stress, such as drought or high temperatures. In some cases, this desiccation can lead to cell death, while in others, the cells may remain viable and can rehydrate when water becomes available again. This ability to tolerate desiccation is particularly seen in certain plant species adapted to arid environments.
