Question

the definition of osmosis and plasmolysis

Answer 1

Answer:

the tendency of a fluid, usually water, to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a solution where the solvent concentration is higher, thus equalizing the concentrations of materials on either side of the membrane. the diffusion of fluids through membranes or porous partitions.

Some real-life examples of Plasmolysis are: Shrinkage of vegetables in hypertonic conditions. Blood cell shrinks when they are placed in the hypertonic conditions. During extreme coastal flooding, ocean water deposits salt onto land. Spraying of weedicides kills weeds in lawns, orchards and agricultural fields.

Answer 2

Osmosis is responsible for the occurrence of plasmolysis. Osmosis is a special type of diffusion that occurs when water flows into or out of a membrane such as a cell's plasma membrane. ... Since plasmolysis is the loss of water from a cell, it occurs when a cell is in a hypertonic solution.
