Describe the effects on plant tissues of immersing them in solutions of different concentrations

If a surrounding sucrose solution has a lower water potential than the plant tissue in the solution, then, through osmosis water will move from the tissue into the surrounding solution, the tissue will lose mass and length as a result and will be flaccid. ... The tissue would gain in mass and length and will become turgid.
If a higher concentration of salt is placed outside of the cell membrane, the water will leave the cell to bond with it. The loss of water from this movement causes plant cells to shrink and wilt. This is why salt can kill plants; it leaches the water from the cells.
f a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the plant cell loses water and hence turgor pressure by plasmolysis: pressure decreases to the point where the protoplasm of the cell peels away from the cell wall, leaving gaps between the cell wall and the membrane and making the plant cell shrink and crumple.

The Effects On Plant Tissues Of Immersing Them In Solutions Of Different Concentrations
- When one immerses plant tissue in solutions which is a lower water potential known as a hypertonic solution than that of the plant cells then the water diffuses out of the cell through the process called osmosis. This implies that there is less matter inside the cell.
- When one immerses plant tissue in a solution of proportional water potential to their cell cytoplasm known as an isotonic solution then since the concentration of the solution is proportional inside and outside of the plant cells then there will be no net movement of water. This implies that the volume or shape of the plant cell is uncertain to change.
- When one immerses plant tissue in solutions of higher water potential than their cell cytoplasm known as a hypotonic solution then since the solution inside the cells is more concentrated than the solution is outside, thus, water diffuses down its concentration gradient into the cell through the process called osmosis. This results in an increase in the amount of cell matter inside the cell.
