The shrinkage of the cytoplasm of Rheo leaf-peel cells occurred when the salt solution is added. This is because the salt solution is hypertonic (has more concentration) as compared to the peel cells. So, water moved out from the cells to the salt solution and as a result, the cytoplasm shrank.

Explanation:

By adding salt water to the Elodea cell environment, students will observe the process of plasmolysis, shrinkage of the cell contents due to water loss.

Rheo leaf in strong solution of salt: The process that will take place here is plasmolysis, which is the collapse or shrinking activity of cells due to loss of water.

Why should we put salt solution over the peeled Rhoeo Leaf?

AIM: To demonstrate plasmolysis and de-plasmolysis in peels of Rhoeo leaf in hypertonic and hypotonic solution using sodium chloride. ... When a plasmolyzed cell is placed in water or hypertonic solution it absorbs water due to endosmosis and its protoplasm assumes the original shape it is called de-plasmolysis.
