Inside most plant cells is a central water vacuole. The cell uses osmotic pressure to bring water into the cell. When the water vacuoles of the plant are filled with water it is said to have high turgor pressure.

∙ 14y agotugor pressure is when plant cells build up pressure behind the cell wall, so that it won't it explode. It could explode when it is hypotonic; meaning water moves from the outside of the cell, towards the inside.

∙ 9y agoLow turgor pressure can make the plant look wilted, very low pressure can even irreversibly damage cells in the plant. High turgor pressure can also cause damage to the plant, but it's also used to expand cells - the plant weakens the cell wall and the increased turgor pressure forces the membrane outward, then the plant strengthens the wall again.

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.
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.
When do plants exhibit turgor pressure?
When the vacuole of plant cells absorb too much water, it swells so big, that it squashes the cytoplasm, and begins to exert pressure on the cell wall. This pressure is known as turgor pressure.
Is the loss of water from a plant cell resulting in a drop in turgor pressure?
Guttation
The pressure inside a plant cell caused by water pushing against the cell wall?
This is called turgor pressure.
How can you tell if a plant has a decreased turgor pressure?
A plant wilts when it has a decreased turgor pressure.
What is a sentence for the term turgor pressure?
When the turgor pressure is low in a plant it will start to slouch and wilt.
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.
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.
A plant with high is healthy and rigid?
A plant with high turgor pressure is healthy and rigid. When turgor pressure is high, it pushes the plasma membrane into the cell wall. This causes the plant to be turgid.
When do plants exhibit turgor pressure?
When the vacuole of plant cells absorb too much water, it swells so big, that it squashes the cytoplasm, and begins to exert pressure on the cell wall. This pressure is known as turgor pressure.
What large structre in a plant cell helps it main tain turgor pressure?
The cell wall. The interior pressure of water maintains turgor and keeps the plant erect.
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
What is the pressure that is in water pressure in plant cell?
turgor pressure, if i understand the question correctly
Is the loss of water from a plant cell resulting in a drop in turgor pressure?
Guttation
The pressure inside a plant cell caused by water pushing against the cell wall?
This is called turgor pressure.
What cell controls turgor pressure?
A plant cell has a cell wall that pushes back against water pressure in the cell when the cell is in it's preferred condition of hypotonicity. This is turgor pressure.
