DEFINITION

Plasmolysis is the process in which cells lose water in a hypertonic solution. The reverse process, deplasmolysis or cytolysis, can occur if the cell is in a hypotonic solution resulting in a lower external osmotic pressure and a net flow of water into the cell.

USES

1. It is a vital phenomenon as it explains the process of osmosis.

2. Plasmolysis demonstrates the permeability of the cell wall and the semipermeable nature of the protoplasm.

3. It helps to detect whether a particular cell is living or dead as the plasmolysis does not take place in a dead cell.

4. The osmotic pressure of a cell can be determined by the plasmolytic method.
