Plasmolysis

The process in which cells lose water in a hypertonic solution, causing the cell membrane to detach from the cell wall.

Crenation

The shrinking of cells in a hypertonic solution due to loss of water through osmosis.

Osmotic Pressure

The pressure that needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of water across a semipermeable membrane.

Turgor Pressure

The pressure exerted by water inside the cell against the cell wall, contributing to the structural rigidity of plant cells.
