The reversal of plasmolysis where the cell membrane returns to contact with the cell wall as water re-enters the cell. This restoration process occurs when a plasmolyzed cell is placed in a hypotonic solution.
Formed by adding the prefix 'de-' meaning 'reversal' to 'plasmolysis.' This term emerged in botanical literature as scientists studied the reversible nature of cellular water loss and recovery in plant tissues.
