The effects of plasmolysis and turgidity on cells?

Plasmolysis occurs when a cell loses water and its contents shrink away from the cell wall, leading to cell shrinking and potential damage. Turgidity, on the other hand, is when a cell is swollen with water, exerting pressure against the cell wall. Turgidity maintains cell shape and structure, while plasmolysis can disrupt cell function and lead to wilting in plants.
