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.
What is the name of the organelle that maintains osmotic pressure in a cell?
Osmotic balance maintained by several organells.Main organell is cell membrane.
Starch and glycogen molecules are a means for a plant or animal cell to store what in order to keep the osmotic pressure in the cell constant?
In order to keep the osmotic pressure in the cell constant, starch and glycogen molecules are a means for a plant or animal cell to store glucose. Cells require sugar or glucose as a source of energy for many different functions.
Does placing plant cells in a hypotonic solution causes the osmotic pressure to increase?
When a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the osmotic pressure tends to increase as the water in the cells moves to a place elevated in solute concentration. The osmotic pressure is the chief cause of support in numerous plants.
The pressure that builds in a plant cell as a result of osmosis is called?
The pressure that builds in a plant cell as a result of osmosis is called turgor pressure.
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.
What is the tonicity of a bacterial cell?
Isotonic conditions will not change the cell in bacterial or an human cell. Because the water concentration in the cell equal.Hypotonic conditions will increase the solute in the cell because of the osmotic pressure inside the cell. Cell may burst if to much solute is inside the cell. Bacterial and human cell.Hypertonic conditions is said to have osmotic pressure. Because the concentration in the environment has an higher concentration than inside the cell so all the solute will drive out of the cell and cause it to dry out.
When water leaves a plant cell the osmotic pressure will increase of decrease?
The osmotic pressure will decrease. The osmotic pressure is decreased because the water is leaving the cell.
What is The pressure exerted against the cell membrane and cell wall known as?
hydrostatic pressure or turgor (same thing)
What enables an organism to grow at high osmotic pressure?
cell wall
What is the name of the organelle that maintains osmotic pressure in a cell?
Osmotic balance maintained by several organells.Main organell is cell membrane.
What is the role of NaCl in Nutrient broth?
NaCl is generally added to the nutrient media for maintaining the Osmotic pressure. Maintaining osmotic pressure is important, because, increase or decrease in the osmotic pressure leads to cell burst or death due to the effect of osmosis. So, maintaining the osmotic pressure is done by adding correct amount of NaCl.
Starch and glycogen molecules are a means for a plant or animal cell to store what in order to keep the osmotic pressure in the cell constant?
In order to keep the osmotic pressure in the cell constant, starch and glycogen molecules are a means for a plant or animal cell to store glucose. Cells require sugar or glucose as a source of energy for many different functions.
How does dehydration affect living things?
Human body comprise of 70% of water. These water are in every cell and fibrils of the body. They help in maintaining the osmotic pressure of the cell and keeping the cells intact. They do osmoregulation in cells thus maintaining the homeostasis of the cell and the body on the whole. Dehydration of the cells or the living things would lead to death of the cells and disturbs the osmotic pressure of the cell leading to collapse of the living things.
Importance of osmotic pressure?
Secret. ^_^ Here is a simple experiment for Osmotic pressure in the blood :http://www.wisc-online.com/objects/ViewObject.aspx?ID=NUR4004 , My Bilogy teacher told me that Turgor pressure and Osmotic Pressure in plants are the same so if shes right, means osmostic pressure is the water that enters the cell and pushes against the cell wall which keeps the plant cell turgid.. Please make sure of what I said before spreading or learning.
What is isotonic?
taking place with normal contraction denoting or relating to a solution having the same osmotic pressure as some other solution, esp. one in a cell or a body fluid.
What is the importance of isotonic solution in pharmaceutical chemistry?
Its neutrality in not affecting the osmotic pressure of a cell.
