When a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution

Biology
1 answer:
Sliva [168]3 years ago
8 0

The correct answer is the entire cell will swell.

When the plant cell is kept in a hypotonic solution, it consumes water by the process of osmosis and begins to inflame, however, the cell wall inhibits it from bursting. The plant cell is said to have become turgid, that is, hard and swollen. The pressure within the cell upsurges until this internal pressure is equivalent to the pressure outside.

How do the vacuoles and cytoplasm contribute to maintaining homeostasis in a cell?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Vacuoles regulate the turgidity by regulating the amount of water inside the cell. cell has excessive water: vacuole absorbs the water and then diffuses it out of the cell. cell lacks water: water from the vacuole gets passed back into the cell thereby maintaining turgidity

Why do viruses only infect specific types of cells?.
AURORKA [14]
No one knows exactly when viruses emerged or from where they came, since viruses do not leave historical footprints such as fossils. Modern viruses are thought to be a mosaic of bits and pieces of nucleic acids picked up from various sources along their respective evolutionary paths. Viruses are acellular, parasitic entities that are not classified within any domain because they are not considered alive. They have no plasma membrane, internal organelles, or metabolic processes, and they do not divide. Instead, they infect a host cell and use the host’s replication processes to produce progeny virus particles. Viruses infect all forms of organisms including bacteria, archaea, fungi, plants, and animals. Living things grow, metabolize, and reproduce. Viruses replicate, but to do so, they are entirely dependent on their host cells. They do not metabolize or grow, but are assembled in their mature form.
Viruses are diverse. They vary in their structure, their replication methods, and in their target hosts or even host cells. While most biological diversity can be understood through evolutionary history, such as how species have adapted to conditions and environments, much about virus origins and evolution remains unknown.

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The chromosome number of the somatic cells.

Explanation:

The body mainly consist of two types of cell known as somatic cells and germ cells. The somatic cells divide by the process of mitosis whereas germ cells generally divide by the process of meiosis.

The skin cells of the giant panda has 42 chromosomes. The skin cells are included in the category of somatic cells. The skin cells are diploid in nature and divides by the process of mitosis only. These cells remains diploid after the mitosis process.

Thus, the chromosome number of the somatic cells.
