. In brief state, what happens when :(a) Dry apricots are left for sometime in pure water and later transferred to sugar solution?(b) A Red Blood Cell is kept in concentrated saline solution?(c) The Plasma-membrane of a cell breaks down?(d) Rheo leaves are boiled in water first and then a drop of sugar syrup is put on it?(e) Golgi apparatus is removed from the cell?

(a) Initially when water solution is kept, endosmosis take place. Later, due to the transfer of sugar solution, exosmosis take place and result is as a shrinkage of apricot. (b) Concentrated saline medium will force the RBC to shrink and collapse due to exosmosis. (c) The Plasma-membrane of a cell breaks down because of huge damage to the cell’s internal environment. (d) The cells will be killed by boiling at high temperature and there would be no effect of addition of sugar syrup. (e) Separate vesicles are formed with the help of Golgi apparatus. Hence, this will be influenced.
