What is the force that causes turgor pressure?
Turgor pressure is caused by the entry of water into a plant cell's central vacuole, creating internal pressure against the cell wall. This pressure is maintained by the osmotic movement of water into the cell, driven by the concentration gradient between the cell's interior and the surrounding environment.
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.
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)
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.
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 are the causes of thigmotropism?
(i)concentration of auxins (ii)turgor pressure

Wilting is counteracted by?
Turgor Pressure
What is osmotic influx of water?
entry of water that causes turgor pressure in vacuoles of plants

What is the relationship between osmosis and turgor pressure?
Water enters into plants by Osmosis and water causes turgor pressure Tugor definition= the state of turgidity and resulting rigidity of cells (or tissues), typically due to the absorption of fluid.
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.
How can you tell if a plant has a decreased turgor pressure?
A plant wilts when it has a decreased turgor pressure.
Is the loss of water from a plant cell resulting in a drop in turgor pressure?
Guttation
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
Does turgor pressure in a hypertonic solution increase or decrease?
more solutes = less osmotic pressure = decreased turgor pressure
