(a) Plasmolysis and deplasmolysis
| Plasmolysis | Deplasmolysis |
| When placed in a hypertonic solution, the contraction of cytoplasm occurs from the cell due to the withdrawal of water. This is called as plasmolysis. | The complete reversal of the plasmolysis process is called as deplasmolysis. |
(b) Turgor pressure and wall pressure
| Turgor pressure | Wall pressure |
| Turgor pressure is the pressure of the cell components on the cell wall. | Wall pressure is the pressure exerted by the wall on the cell components. |
(c) Guttation and bleeding
| Guttation | Bleeding |
| Along the margins or at the tips of the leaves, water appears in a tiny amount as a droplets and this is due to the loss of extra water which is known as guttation. | Through the cuts of the stem, there will be a water loss and this process is known as bleeding. |
(d) Turgidity and flaccidity
| Turgidity | Flaccidity |
| When a cell is fully distended, the condition is termed as turgidity. | The reverse process of turgidity is called flaccidity. |
