Question

write a note on plasmolysis​

Answer 1

Here is your answer

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.

Answer 2

The shrinkage of plant cell beside the cell wall is known as plasmolysis.It takes place only in plant cells because of the presence of cell wall.When we place the plant cell in hypotonic solution its cytoplasm will shrink this process is plasmolysis.
