Answer / patrick
There is solution between cell membrane and vacuole whose membrane is tonoplast. when the cell is surrounded by solution of low water potential than the solution inside the cell, the cell sap exit by exosmosis process. tonoplast shrink until it looses its hold from cell membrane by plasmolysis process. In other words it is a irreversible shrinkage of vacuole.
