The force that causes turgor pressure is osmosis.
When the turgor pressure is low in a plant it will start to slouch and wilt.
hydrostatic pressure or turgor (same thing)
Turgor pressure is usually calculated as the difference between water potential and osmotic potential. In herbaceous plants turgor pressure is almost solely responsible for maintaining an erect habit. Wilting of leaves is due to loss of turgor in the leaf.
turgor pressure, also turgidity, is the main pressure exerted by cell contents against the cell walls in plant cells
Guttation
Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted by water on the cell wall. This is what helps plants stand upright, even though they have no skeleton.

Turgor Pressure
Plasmolysis is when a cell shrinks due to water living. Plasmoptysis is the bursting fourth of protoplasm from a cell, through rupture of the cell wall.
The force that causes turgor pressure is osmosis.
Here are 3 examples: 1.)Plasmolysis, which is caused by osmosis, causes land plants to wilt due to the lack of turgor pressure. Plants do need turgor pressure to keep them upright. 2.)Flowers open when the inner surface of their petals become more turgid than the outer surfaces. 3.)Guard cells on leaf surfaces control the stomata size using changes in turgor. P.S. Hope that helps:)
Osmotic pressure across the cell wall, here called Turgor Pressure.
A plant wilts when it has a decreased turgor pressure.
When the turgor pressure is low in a plant it will start to slouch and wilt.
Turgor would be lost when a plant loses water. Salt water can cause water to move out of plant cells and the plant would wilt.
When a plant is wilting (which is due to plasmolysis of plant cells caused by diffusion), water it and it would become a hypotonic solution. Water enter plant cells and this increases turgor pressure, enabling plants to be upright.
