प्रश्न
The diagram given below represents a plant cell after being placed in a strong sugar solution. Study the diagram and answer the questions that follow:

- What is the state of the cell shown in the diagram?
- Name the structure that acts as a selectively permeable membrane.
- Label the parts numbered 1 to 4 in the diagram.
- How can the above cell be brought back to its original condition? Mention the scientific term for the recovery of the cell.

उत्तर
- Plasmolysed cell
- Cell membrane acts as a selectively permeable membrane.
- 1 – Cell wall, 2 – Space filled with strong sugar solution, 3 – Plasma membrane, 4 – Nucleus
- If the cell is placed in a hypotonic sugar solution, the cell will be brought to its original condition. This is called deplasmolysis.
- Features present in the plant cell which are not present in the animal cell:
- Presence of cell wall.
- Ability to shrink the protoplasm and plasmolyse.
