Answer:
(a) Dry apricots when placed in pure water swell due end
osmosis (inward movement of water) and later when are transferred sugar
solution exosmosis (outward movement of water) occurs and they shrink again.
(b) When a Red Blood Cell is placed in concentrated saline
solution exosmosis occurs and the RBCs shrink due to excess loss of water.
(c) Breaking of the plasma membrane leads to the
scattering of the ceil organelles as it forms the basic supporting unit of the
cell.
(d) When Rheo leaves are boiled in water first and then a
drop of sugar syrup is put on it, osmosis does not occurs, due to the death of
the cells of the leaf. This shows that selective permeability is property of
living plasma membrane.
(e) Golgi complex helps in the package, storage and
transfer of proteins synthesized by ribosome?s. Thus, when ribosome?s are
removed the cell will not function properly.
