Plasmolysis and deplasmolysis

उत्तर
| Plasmolysis | Deplasmolysis | ||
| 1 | It refers to the shrinkage of the cytoplasm and withdrawal of the plasma membrane from the cell wall caused due to the withdrawal of water when placed in a hypertonic solution. | 1 | Deplasmolysis is the recovery of a plasmolysed cell when it is placed in water, wherein the cell's protoplasm again swells up due to the re-entry of water. |
| 2 | In Plasmolysis, the cell becomes flaccid. | 2 | In deplasmolysis, the cell becomes turgid. |

In an experiment, two sets of apparatus were set up as shown below:
In A there is a concentrated sugar solution inside the thistle funnel and red ink in the water outside the funnel. In B there is a concentrated glucose solution with red ink inside the thistle funnel and water outside the thistle funnel.
