Question

A normal plant cell holds water in the vacuole of the cell. This large organelle also gives the cell support. Suppose a plant is submerged in salt water. As a result, the vacuoles collapse and the leaves wilt. This condition is called plasmolysis. Which explanation do you think best describes what happens to the cells of that plant during plasmolysis?
