The pressure in plant cells to make them firm?
In plants, the cell wall makes it firm. For both plants and animals, the cytoplasm inside the cell makes them firm.
The pressure that is exerted on the inside of cell walls and that is caused by the movement of water into the cell?
Osmotic pressure across the cell wall, here called Turgor Pressure.
Can plant cells have negative turgar pressure values?
Plant cells are not known to have negative turgor pressure values. However, there are times when plants will have low turgor pressures which may result into negative turgor pressure values.
Which type of pressure is responsible for the maintenance of a plants erect position?
Turgor pressure
What is turgor pressure and why is it so important?
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
Turgor pressure occurs in what kind of solution?
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.

In plants, the cell wall makes it firm. For both plants and animals, the cytoplasm inside the cell makes them firm.
An example of 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:)
How do Venus Flytraps trap and protect insects?
First of all, they do NOT protect insects. They kill them and digest their juices. To enable the plant to trap them they secrete a sweet, sticky substance that attracts insects. Once the insect is attracted, the trap senses the insect and immediately snaps shut after 2 hairs are triggered. This quick movement is called a nastic movement. Such movements are done by using turgor pressure. Turgor pressure is pressure in a plant caused by water. Turgor pressure is displayed when plants are wilted from lack of water and when plants are stiff and strong when they have enough water.
