1) The state of being turgid; the rigid or fullness state of a cell due to high water content as a result of differing solute concentrations between a semipermeable membrane.
(2) The pressure produced by a solution against the semipermeable membrane enclosing the cell due to osmotic pressure differences between the inside and outside of the cell.
What else can I help you with?
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.
What change affect the turgor pressure of a potato cell?
you can soak it in a high concentration of salt water which causes it to lose its turgor pressure ,therefore it shrinks in size by diffusional water from inside the potato moves to the salt solution)
What causes a plant cell to wilt when it is not full?
When a plant cell is not full, it wilts due to the loss of turgor pressure. Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted on the cell wall by the fluid inside the cell. Without enough water to maintain this pressure, the cell loses its rigidity and wilts.
Is crenation to plasmolysis and hemolysis is to turgor pressure true or false?
False. Crenation, plasmolysis, and hemolysis are all related to osmotic processes in cells, but turgor pressure is not directly equivalent to hemolysis. Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted by the fluid inside plant cells against the cell wall, while hemolysis refers to the bursting of red blood cells.
A plant with high is healthy and rigid?
A plant with high turgor pressure is healthy because it means the plant cells are fully hydrated and maintaining their structural rigidity. Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted by the water inside the plant cells against the cell walls, providing support and allowing the plant to stand upright. Overall, high turgor pressure is a good sign of a healthy and well-hydrated plant.
What is a sentence for the term 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?
Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted on the inside of cell walls when water enters the cell through osmosis. This pressure helps maintain the structural integrity and shape of the cell. If the cell becomes too turgid, it can lead to issues like wilting in plants.
The pressure inside a plant cell caused by water pushing against the cell wall?
This is called turgor pressure.
What change affect the turgor pressure of a potato cell?
you can soak it in a high concentration of salt water which causes it to lose its turgor pressure ,therefore it shrinks in size by diffusional water from inside the potato moves to the salt solution)

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 in plant cells to make them firm?
The pressure in plant cells that makes them firm is called turgor pressure. It results from the osmotic movement of water into the cell, causing the cell to swell and exert pressure against the cell wall. Turgor pressure is important for maintaining the structural integrity and rigidity of plant cells.
Is crenation to plasmolysis and hemolysis is to turgor pressure true or false?
False. Crenation, plasmolysis, and hemolysis are all related to osmotic processes in cells, but turgor pressure is not directly equivalent to hemolysis. Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted by the fluid inside plant cells against the cell wall, while hemolysis refers to the bursting of red blood cells.

Overall, high turgor pressure is a good sign of a healthy and well-hydrated plant.
Is the loss of water from a plant cell resulting in a drop in turgor pressure?
Guttation
What stores water and waste inside the cell?
The vacuole is responsible for storing water, nutrients, and waste inside a cell. It helps maintain cell structure and turgor pressure, and plays a role in intracellular digestion and waste removal.
Why do the palms of the hands wrinkle in less than 10 seconds under lukewarm water?
the salinity of the water inside our body is lesser than the water surrounding our palms. it is caused by the turgor pressure.----Many thanks your answer, but I believe the Turgor pressure is only applicable in plant cells and bacteria, it is the pressure exerted on the walls of the cell from the inside by the water content of the cell, which gives certain plants more rigidity than others.
