Question

6. What would happen if plasma membrane
ruptures ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

It depends upon the nature and the surroundings of the location where the plasma membrane ruptures. If the plasma membrane ruptures in a hypotonic solution, where the concentration of solute is more than that of the solvent, then the water from the cell goes out, in order to stable the solution and also letting the cell to shrink to death.

Or, if the plasma membrane ruptures in a hypertonic solution, where the concentration of solvent is more than that of the solute, then the water from the surroundings would enter the cell, to neutralize the solution outside, making it swell. This may eventually lead to bursting and dying.

Thus, in both the cases, the rupturing of the plasma membrane would only lead to the death of the cell.

Hope you got your answer!!!

Answer 2

Answer:

If the plasma membrane ruptures or breakdown then the cell will not be able to exchange material from its surrounding by diffusion or osmosis. Thereafter the protoplasmic material will be disappeared and the cell will die
