Question

define plasmolysis........
​

Answer 1

contraction of the protoplast of a plant cell as a result of loss of water from the cell.

Answer 2

Answer:

Plasmolysis is when plant cells lose water after being placed in a solution that has a higher concentration of solutes than the cell does. This is known as a hypertonic solution. Water flows out of the cells and into the surrounding fluid due to osmosis.

Example is if red blood cells are placed in a strong salt solution.
