You have a potted plant and decided to nurture it with urea, a nitrogen-based fertilizer. You scooped a cup of urea and placed it around the base of the plant and watered it after. The next day you noticed that the plant wilted and eventually die. What could have explained the death of the potted plant? O The plant was exposed to hypotonic solution making the plant turgid. O The plant was exposed to hypertonic solution making the water escaped the plant cells. O The plant was exposed to hypotonic solution making the plant plasmolyzed. O The plant was exposed to hypertonic solution making too much water entered the cells.

From this information, which of the following statements BEST describes the cells of the flower? Group of answer choices hypotonic to both freshwater and the salt solution hypertonic to freshwater but hypotonic to the salt solution hypertonic to both the freshwater and the salt solution hypotonic to freshwater but hypertonic to the salt solution
Fill in the blanks using the following terms: more, less, equal, in, out, zero, plasmolyze, swell, stay the same. 1.

If plant cells are placed in a hypotonic solution which has _ solute and the _ solvent than the cells, the net movement of water will be _ and the cells will _. 3. If plant cells are placed in an isotonic solution which has a solution _ in concetration to the cell, the net movement of water will be _ and the cell will _.
A botanist has been examining three plants, measuring the amount of acid in their cells and examining sections of their leaves under the microscope. Numbers in the table are in relative units. Plant Acid, day Acid, night Has wreath anatomy? FADH2 Ethanol A 20 250 No 0 50 B 10 10 No 100 1 C 200 10 Yes 100 1 For part A, they want to know which plant is a C3, C4, or CAM plant. Then, use this info to identify which plant is from Florida, Minnesota, or the desert.
An aqueous plant found in its natural environment would be in a solution known as: a. Hypotonic b. Isotonic c. Hypertonic
Place the appropriate plant cells in the isotonic, hypertonic, and hypotonic beakers. isotonic solution hypertonic solution hypotonic solution Answer Bank
How come c) is the answer? Wouldn't the fresh water be a hypertonic solution because it would allow water to osmose out of the celery stalk and would make it 'harder' as there is less water?
Imagine you pull away the cover slip and drip 10 drops of deionized water on the young Elodea leaf, rinsing away the 5% salt solution. Plasmolysis appears to reverse. Why is this happening?
Submerging a plant cell in distilled water will result in lysis of the cell membrane bursting of the cell membrane plasmolysis of the cell the cell becoming turgid the cell becoming flaccid
What is likely to happen to a plant cell that is placed in pure water? it becomes flaccid it bursts it becomes turgid it undergoes plasmolysis
When are plant cells considered to be plasmolyzed? O When put in distilled water. O When put in 0.001% NaCl solution. O When put in hypertonic solution. O When put in isotonic solution. O When put in hypotonic solution.
Mosses are very good at absorbing water. Peat moss, also known as sphagnum moss, is particularly good at holding water, which is why it is often used in horticulture to improve soil structure and drainage. If you made a wet mount of a sphagnum moss leaf on a microscope slide and observed it with a compound light microscope, it would look like the image on the right. In that image of the magnified leaf, label a water-holding cell, the location of photosynthetic cells, and a reinforcing rib. 5) How do mosses survive without vascular tissue?
In a hypotonic solution, a plant cell will ______. burst undergo plasmolysis become flaccid become turgid
