Cutting equal-sized potato pieces and measuring initial weight ensures fair comparison. It helps observe accurate changes due to osmosis, avoiding errors caused by size or mass differences in the experiment results.
If a plant cell wall becomes flexible, the cell will lose its rigidity and shape. It may shrink under stress and fail to support the plant, affecting its structure and stability.
Plants need a rigid cell wall because they are fixed and must withstand environmental forces. Animals move and need flexible cells, so they do not have a cell wall.
If soaked mung bean seeds are placed in a concentrated solution, they will lose water due to osmosis. As a result, the seeds will shrink and become smaller in size.
