Question
Chapter 36.2, Problem 4CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: What happens if plant protoplasts are kept in pure water?
Concept introduction: Protoplasts are isolated plant cells which lack the rigid cell wall that is completely or partially removed using either mechanical or enzymatic methods. The cell wall surrounds plasma membrane and protects the cell from bursting.
