MCQ
A plasmolysed cell can be deplasmolysed by placing it in:
  • A
    Isotonic solution
  • B
    Hypertonic solution
  • C
    Saturated solution
  • Pure water or hypotonic solution

Answer

Correct option: D.
Pure water or hypotonic solution
When a plasmolyzed cell is kept in pure water or hypotonic medium, the cell will uptake water due to the process of endosmosis.
This water uptake will increase turgor inside the cell and cell will become deplasmolysed.
