Plasmolysis is the shrinking of a bacterial cell in a hypertonic solution.
- Plant cells undergo a process known as plasmolysis when they are exposed to a solution that contains more solutes than the cells do. This is an example of a hypertonic solution
- Osmosis is the process by which water leaves cells and enters the surrounding fluid.
- As a result, the protoplasm—all of the cell's internal components—shrinks away from the cell wall.
- Cell death may occur as a result of severe water loss that causes the cell wall to collapse.
- Cells cannot stop plasmolysis from occurring since osmosis is an uncontrollable process that uses no energy from the cell.
