Turgid plant cells mean that the organism has more than enough water, and this causes the cells to be in a hypotonic state. Plants that have enough water are generally healthier, and the turgid cells support the plant better. Furthermore, studies have shown that plant cells perform the best in a hypotonic state.

What two parts controls the shape and turgidity of plant cells?
2 main parts of plant cell control the shap and turgidity of the plan cell 1st is the cytoplasm and 2nd iz the cell wall
Why do plant cell have big vacuole?
Plant cell have big vacuoles to give rigidity and turgidity to the plant......it helps the plant to stand erect.
What are some applications of pressure?
Artesian well Blood pressure Hydraulic head Plant cell turgidity Pythagorean cup
The internal pressure of a plant cell is called what?
turgor pressure, also turgidity, is the main pressure exerted by cell contents against the cell walls in plant cells
Give the factors that determine the turgidity of the cells?
There are many factors that determine the turgidity, or structure, of a cell. These factors include the amount of water present in the cell, a semi-permeable membrane of the cell, and formation of an osmotically active substance within the cell.

Which cell organelle provide turgidity and rigidity to a plant cell?
xylem vessel provides turgidity while phloem vessel provides rigidity in the presence of water.
What two organelles are found in plant cells but not in animal cells?
The central vacuole, for storage and turgidity, and the chloroplasts, that preform photosynthesis for the plant.
What happens to plant cell in medium concentrated water?
if the plant cell is in concentrated water...it shrinks .i.e the water in plant cell flows out and hence the plant cell loses its turgidity and shrinks.this process is called exosmosis .
Why plant have larger vacuoles?
To maintain better turgidity against their cell walls, which keeps them erect.
How do vacuoles in a plant cells help keep the plant upright?
Vacuoles maintain the cell turgidity to keep the plants upright.
Do plant cells become firm when there is enough water?
Yes , because this is due to turgidity of plant cell
What is turgidity and where does it take place?
Turgidity is the state of a plant cell being swollen, firm, and rigid due to the absorption of water into its vacuole. This process mainly takes place in the central vacuole of plant cells, providing structural support and maintaining plant rigidity.
What is turgidity in osmosis?
"Turgidity" means stiffness. When plant cells absorb water, they press against their cell walls,. becoming very stiff, much like a balloon that is inflated to almost popping (if the cell wall weren't there, the cells WOULD pop). This stiffness takes the place of a plant's skeleton.
