How does the movement of water in and out of a plant cell differ from movement in
aalyn [17]

Answer AND Explanation:

In both plants and animals, the movement of water requires an osmotic pressure and a concentration gradient. When animals take in water by osmosis, the swell and burst. this is called haemolysis. Unlike in plants, when the cells take in water, they become turgid. The animal cells lack cell wall and thus they burst since the cell membrane is not elastic.
