I: After plasmolysis, the gap between the cell wall and the cell membrane in a plant cell is filled with hypertonic solution.
II: If a plant cell is placed in a hyotonic solution, the plant cell loses water and hence turgor pressure by plasmolysis.

2. I is correct but II is incorrect
3. I is incorrect and II is incorrect
4. I is incorrect and II is correct
