what is plasmolysis
Answers
Explanation:
Plasmolysis is the process in which cells lose water in a 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 net flow of water into the cell.

Question :–
What is plasmolysis ?
Answer :–
⭐️ Plasmolysis is the loss of water leads to the contraction of the protoplasmic of the plant cell.
⭐️ The word Plasmolysis was generally derived from a Latin and Greek word plasma – The mould and lusis – loosening.
➩️ Types of Plasmolysis :–
◼️ Concave Plasmolysis.
◼️ Convex Plasmolysis.
➩️ Conditions of Plasmolysis :–
⬛️ Isotonic: External solution balances the osmotic pressure of the cytoplasm.
⬛️ Hypotonic: External solution is more dillute than the cytoplasm (cell swells).
⬛️ Hypertonic: External solution is more concentrated (cells shrink).
