Solution
The correct option is A Q In the initial condition of plasmolysis the cell loses water and just loses its turgidity. The shape doesn't change much just the cell membrane stops touching the cell wall. Image Q represents this stage.
Image P represents a turgid cell. Image R and S are the middle and final stages of plasmolysis.
