Lysis is cell bursting (animals) in hypotonic solutions; plant cells become turgid but wilt without enough water.
Lysis is cell bursting in a hypotonic solution for animals, while plants become turgid due to their cell walls and wilt without water.
| Front | Lysis/Turgidity |
|---|---|
| Back | - animals: cell bursting from being in hypotonic solution - plants: remain turgid because of cell wall - when plants dehydrate, turgid pressure loss results in wilting |
