Tugor pressure. Tugor pressure is caused by the cell's vacuole filling up with water and pressing against the outside of the cell. Isnt turgor pressure occurring in a turgid cell? =/
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.
tugor pressure
The cell wall is made up mostly of cellulose which, when formed into polymers, becomes stable. This allows the cell to have a greater pressure difference because the strength of the cell wall can keep more water in.
This is called turgor pressure.

No, wall pressure and turgor pressure are not opposite to each other. Wall pressure refers to the force exerted by the cell wall of a plant cell against the protoplast, while turgor pressure is the force exerted by the vacuole against the cell wall. They both work in conjunction to maintain cell shape and provide support to the plant cell.
The central vacuole regulates the "tugor pressure" within the cell of the plant; this is responsible (together with the cell wall) for maintaining the shape and structure of many plants (mainly herbaceous). If the vacuole were removed, punctured or absent there would be no rigidity to the cell. The central vacuole is also assists with osmosis and homeostasis within the cell, damage to the vacuole will result in the cell dying.
Turgid pressure is the outward pressure that happens in a plant cell when the vacuoles and cytoplasm fill up with water. It pushes the plasma membrane against the cell wall of bacteria, plant, and fungi cells.
The cell wall is made up mostly of cellulose which, when formed into polymers, becomes stable. This allows the cell to have a greater pressure difference because the strength of the cell wall can keep more water in.
This is called turgor pressure.
The cell wall prevents the cell from exploding! The pressure from the water, within the plant cell is so great that without the wall, it would simply explode.
The cell wall. With this rigid structure plant cells can maintain turgor pressure; the pressure of internalized water pushing out on the cell wall. This pressure in every plant cell keeps the plant erect.
