The following diagram represents a plant cell after being placed in a strong sugar solution.
Guidelines 1 to 5 indicate the following
(1)Cell wall, (2) Strong sugar solution, (3) Protoplasm (4) Large vacuole, (5) Nucleus
(1)What is the state of the cell shown in the cell shown in the diagram?
(2)Name the structure which acts as a selectively permeable membrane.
(3)If the cell had been placed in distilled water instead of strong sugar solution, which feature would not have been seen?
(4)Name any one feature of this plant cell which is not present in an animal cell.

उत्तर
(1)The cell is flaccid i.e. it is plasmolyse
(2)Plasma Membrane
(3)Plasmolysis would not occur and flaccidity would not be seen i.e. the protoplasm would not have shrunken away from the cell wall
(4)Cell Wall is absent in animal cell.

A candidate in order to study the process of osmosis has taken 3 potato cubes and put them in 3 different beakers containing 3 different solutions. After 24 hours, in the first beaker the potato cube increased in size, in the second beaker the potato cube decreased in size and in the third beaker there was no change in the size of the potato cube. The following diagram shows the result of the same experiment:

(i) Give the technical terms of the solutions used in beakers, 1, 2 and 3.
(ii) In beaker 3, the size of the potato cube remains the same. Explain the reason in brief.
(iii) Write the specific feature of the cell sap of root hairs which helps in absorption of water.
