Plasmolysis identifies the process of: (a) Imbibition (b) Diffusion (c) Active transport (d) Osmosis.

Answers (1)

When the Plant cell is kept in the hypertonic solution, the water moves out of the cell by exosmosis and the cell shrinks. But since the cell wall is rigid in nature, it does not shrink and the cellular content moves away from the cell wall. This process is called plasmolysis.

Hence it identifies the osmosis process and thus the correct option is (d).
