When the cell swells with water the hydrostatic force pushes outwards against the cell wall / cell membrane
This makes the cell turgid - like filling a ballon with water. This provides support by physically 'bulking up' the plant
Without the turgidity the organism would become limp, much like lettuce that has been left out of the fridge for days.
Examples of plants that exhibit turgor movement include the sensitive plant (Mimosa pudica), venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula), and the bladderwort (Utricularia). These plants use changes in turgor pressure within their cells to move parts of their structures in response to stimuli such as touch or prey capture.
Plants are able to stand upright thanks to the turgor pressure in the cells. The large central vacuole in the plant cells are able to take up water and makes the cell more rigid and the overall plant erect.
Turgor pressure is responsible for the maintenance of a plant's erect position. It is the pressure of the cell contents against the cell wall, providing structural support and rigidity to the plant. When the cells are filled with water, they become turgid, helping the plant to stand upright.
Turgor supports plants that do not have woody stems. Plants lacking in turgor visibly wilt. The process of osmosis plays an important part in maintaining the turgidity of plant cells.Water leaves and enters the cell by osmosis. If too much water leaves the cell, for example during drought or saline conditions, then turgor is lost and the cell becomes flaccid. As turgor gives the plant rigidity, loss of turgidity results in the plant wilting
Plants have various structures adapted for support, such as rigid cell walls in stems and trunks, woody tissues for strength, and specialized structures like tendrils, thorns, and aerial roots that help anchor the plant. Additionally, plants use mechanisms like turgor pressure in cells and the production of lignin to maintain upright growth and withstand environmental stress.

Yes, Chlorophyll pressure does help support plants.
support help the plants to grow as plants like creepers don't have a strong stem which could help them to stand straight thus any type of support will help the plants
helps provide support for the plant
Examples of plants that exhibit turgor movement include the sensitive plant (Mimosa pudica), venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula), and the bladderwort (Utricularia). These plants use changes in turgor pressure within their cells to move parts of their structures in response to stimuli such as touch or prey capture.
Vacuoles in plants serve several functions such as storing water, maintaining turgor pressure to support the plant structure, storing nutrients and waste products, and regulating the pH of the cell. They also play a role in preventing wilting and providing structural support to the cell.
The central vacuole in plants serves as a storage organelle for water, nutrients, and waste products. It helps maintain turgor pressure in plant cells, providing structural support and regulating cell expansion.
Turgor pressure occurs in a hypotonic solution where the cell's cytoplasm has a higher solute concentration than the surrounding environment, causing water to flow into the cell and create pressure against the cell wall.
