(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?

(e) golgi apparatus is removed from the cell?
a. When dry apricots are placed in pure water, they swell due to osmosis. When they are later transferred to a sugar solution, occurs, and they shrink.
b. Exosmosis occurs when a Red Blood Cell is placed in a concentrated saline solution, causing the RBCs to due to excessive water loss.
c. will occur. The plasma membrane maintains the integrity of the cellular organelle and gives the cell both protection and shape.
d. Rheo leaves' cells die when heated to a high temperature, and because there is no osmosis, no water will be absorbed even if a sugar solution is applied. This cell undergoes , leading to the conclusion that only living cells undergo osmosis.
e. Materials produced in the Golgi apparatus or modified in the ER cannot be if the Golgi apparatus is removed from the cell. Other Golgi apparatus processes, such as the production of lysosomes, the synthesis of complex sugars, and membrane biogenesis, among others, won't function, causing the cell to die.
