Question

• A. Minimum size
• B. Little permeability
• C. Maximum size
• D. Impermeable nature

Answer 1

The correct option is C Maximum size

When a plant cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the plant cell loses water and the protoplasm of the cell is pulled away from the cell wall. The plant cell becomes flaccid. When a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the plant cell intakes water. When the cell is fully inflated with water, it becomes turgid. Fully turgid cell possesses maximum size.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
