Statement`: Plant cells do not rupture when placed in distilled water.
Statement 2: Animal cells rupture when placed in distilled water

Options

A. Both statements`1` and`2`are correct.
B. Statement`1` is correct but statement `2`is incorrect.
C. Statement `1`is incorrect but statement `2` is correct.
D. Both statements `1`and`2`are correct.

Explanation

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Understanding the Environment**: When plant and animal cells are placed in distilled water, they are in a hypotonic solution. This means that the concentration of solutes inside the cell is higher than that in the distilled water.

2. **Effect on Plant Cells**:
- Plant cells have a rigid cell wall that surrounds the cell membrane.
- When placed in distilled water, water enters the plant cell through osmosis.
- The influx of water causes the cell to swell, but the cell wall provides structural support and prevents the cell from bursting. Instead, the cell becomes turgid (firm).

3. **Effect on Animal Cells**:
- Animal cells do not have a cell wall; they only have a flexible cell membrane.
- When animal cells are placed in distilled water, water also enters the cell through osmosis.
- Without a rigid cell wall to contain the pressure, the animal cell can swell and eventually burst due to the excess water entering the cell.

4. **Conclusion**:
- Statement 1 is true: Plant cells do not rupture when placed in distilled water due to the presence of a cell wall.
- Statement 2 is also true: Animal cells do rupture when placed in distilled water because they lack a cell wall.

5. **Final Answer**: Both statements are true. Therefore, the correct option is A: Both statement 1 and 2 are true.
