Answers

If 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.
