Cytoplasm | MCQs

Explanation

Plasmolysis is the process by which a plant cell loses water and its cytoplasm shrinks, causing the cell membrane to pull away from the cell wall.

This can occur due to osmotic stress, such as when a plant is exposed to high concentrations of salt or sugar.

Explanation

• Cytoplasm is a gel-like substance inside the cell membrane that contains various organelles, salts, sugars, and other chemicals.
• It provides a medium for metabolic reactions, supports cell growth and maintenance, and helps move materials within the cell.
