Answer / amjad

When two solutions are separated by a semipermeable
membrane water moves from high concentration to low
concentration. Plasmolysis is a phenomenon when a cell is
placed in solution with high salt concentration than its
cytoplasm ie with low water conc than its cytoplasn, then
water moves from cytoplasm to outside and cell shrinks.

Answer / patrick

There is solution between cell membrane and vacuole whose membrane is tonoplast. when the cell is surrounded by solution of low water potential than the solution inside the cell, the cell sap exit by exosmosis process. tonoplast shrink until it looses its hold from cell membrane by plasmolysis process. In other words it is a irreversible shrinkage of vacuole.
