Answer:
If Red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the water moves into the cell. The cell swells and become turgid.
Explanation:
This is a type of osmosis. here plasma membrane of RBC works as semipermeable(only solute can move) osmotic membrane.
We all know that, osmosis is a process where liquid moves across semipermeable membrane from less concentration gradient to high concentration gradient.
There are three types of solution in respect of the concentration of cell's cytoplasm. These are
- Hypotionic (when the solution is dilute than the conc. of cytoplasm). In this condition water moves into the cell and the cell become turgid. this is known as deplasmolysis
- Hypertonic ( when the solution is concentrated than cytoplasm), In this condition water moves out from the cell and the cell become flaccid. This is known as plasmolysis.
- Isotonic (when both the conc. of cell and solution are same). No osmosis takes place.
When the lysosomes of a cell rapidly digest the cell itself, this process is known as autolysis. This self digestion process helps in the decomposition of the dead cells. The cell is dismantled by its own lysosomes, which digests the remains of the dead cell. It is an essential process in the life cycle of a cell. This self digestion of the cells is extremely important for the new cells to grow.
Hence, the correct answer is 'autolysis'.

I believe the answer is true because we spill liquids during these events causing more erosion
