Plasmoysis - Plasmolysis is the process in which cells lose water in a hypertonic solution. The reverse process, cytolysis, can occur if the cell is in a hypotonic solution resulting in a lower external osmotic pressure and a net flow of water into the cell. Through observation of plasmolysis and deplasmolysis, it is possible to determine the tonicity of the cell's environment as well as the rate solute molecules cross the cellular membrane.
Hope it helps you
what lysosomes do is that they eat away or digest the damaged, infected and harmful bodies present in the cells which are floating in the cytoplasm(cytosol).
LETS GO A LITTLE DEEP INTO THE TOPIC:
Lysosomes contain hydrolytic(digestive) enzymes that contain hydrolase and can eaily digest foreign bodies it mainly helps in the digestion of protein but during extreme conditions when cell is starving(not getting enough food) the start digesting the lipid bilayer and consequently digests the whole cell which is called Autophagy and hence are called the sucidal bags!
phew.....1 done next left!
Plasmolysis: Is the process in which the cell shrinks when put in a hypertonic solution to maintain equiliberium this is mainly a passive transport and can also be termed as exosmosis!
HOPE IT HELPED YOU!
