Question

7 multiple choice 1 point in plant cells, a hypotonic solution causes: plasmolysis crenation turgor pressure cell death

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In plant cells, a hypotonic solution has a lower solute - concentration than the cell's interior. Water moves into the cell by osmosis. This causes the cell to swell and build turgor pressure against the cell wall. Plasmolysis occurs in hypertonic solutions, crenation is seen in animal cells in hypertonic solutions, and cell death is not the typical result of a hypotonic solution for plant cells under normal circumstances.

Answer:

C. Turgor pressure
