Question

Explain how do cell walls permit the cells of fungi to withstand very dilute external media without bursting

Answer 1

Hi there_________________________________________________________________

cell walls permit the cells of plants,fungi and bacteria to withstand very dilute (hypotonic) external media without bursting because in such media the cells tend to take up water by osmosis.The cell swells , building up pressure against the cell wall.The wall exerts an equal pressure against the swollen cell because of their walls, such cells can withstand much greater changes in the surrounding medium than animal cells._________________________________________________.

Answer 2

The fungal cell wall is made up of chitin which is a rigid and thick polysaccharide known as chitin. It plays a huge role in protecting fungal cell from bursting even in dilute media.

The rigidity of chitin wall provides strength to fungal cells to combat internal turgor pressure and provides enough elasticity to save it from bursting.
