When potatoes are in ground, they do not swell with water when it rains. The potato is already filled with water. The potato cannot gather the minerals directly. It is the roots that absorb the nutrients and send it to the potato. The rain water has little effect on the potato. I hope the answer has helped you.

Which organelle is responsible for wilting?
makkiz [27]

Vacuole is the answer.

Wilting is the loss of rigidity of non woody parts of plants and occurs when turgor pressure falls. 

The vacuole controls turgor pressure. Turgor pressure dictates the rigidity of the cell and is associated with the difference between the osmotic pressure inside and outside the cell.

When a plant receives adequate amounts of water, the central vacuoles of its cells swell as the liquid collects within them creating a high level of turgor pressure which helps maintain the structural integrity of the plant along with the support of the cell wall.

In the absence of enough water , central vacuoles shrink and turgor pressure is reduced  compromising the plant's rigidity so that wilting takes place.

I NEED HELP WITH A QUICK BIOLOGY QUESTION!
Lelechka [254]
Hello there! 

The most plausible answer here, I believe, would be Polymerase. 
Polymerase is responsible for joining nucleotides to create new strands of DNA, or, replicating. Hope this helps and have a nice day.
