Explanation:

plasmolysis is the process in which cells lose water in the 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 new flow of water into the cell .

Hi mate...✌✌

Here is ur answer

★ Plasmolysis is the phenomena of shrinkage of cell organelles away from the cell wall.

★ It usually occurs when the cell is in hypertonic solution (outside water concentration is low).

★ It causes loss of water in the cell.

Examples of Plasmolysis

Plasmolysis is more common and happens in extreme cases of water loss. 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. This is due to the natural phenomena-Plasmolysis.
  • When more amount of salt is added as the preservatives for food like jams, jellies, and pickles. The cells lose water due to higher concentration outside and become less conducive to support the growth of microorganisms.

☞ Deplasmolysis

Its just the opposite phenomena of plasmolysis.

When the plasmolysed cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, (the solution in which solute concentration is less than the cell sap), the water travels into the cell, due to the higher concentration of water outside the cell.

Then the cell swells and becomes turgid. This is known as deplasmolysis.
