The opposite of a turgid plant cell is called a flaccid plant cell. A walled cell is flaccid in surroundings where there is no tendency for water to enter. A turgid wall is very form, while a flaccid cell wall is more limp.

What will be zero in a fully turgid cell?

The water potential will be zero in a fully turgid cell because the pressure potential (turgor pressure) is equal and opposite to the solute potential, resulting in a net water potential of zero. This balance prevents further influx of water into the cell.


When a plant cell such as one from a peony stemis submerged in a very hypotonic solution what is likely to occur?

The plant cell will take in water through osmosis, causing it to swell. This can lead to the cell becoming turgid and possibly bursting if the cell wall is weak.


A cell that has a strong turgor pressure called?

A cell with strong turgor pressure is referred to as turgid. Turgid cells are swollen with water and have high internal pressure due to the osmotic movement of water into the cell. This pressure helps maintain the cell's structural integrity and is important for plant rigidity and growth.

What does it mean when a cell is turgid?

turgid = swollenThere is a limit to the amount of water that can enter the cell. The cell reaches this limit when the osmotic pressure attracting water into the vacuole is countered by the inward mechanical pressure exerted by the cell wall.A turgid cell is a plant cell whose vacuole contains the maximum amount of water. The water has entered by osmosis, because the vacuole is hypertonic to the solution outside the cell.Animal cells can swell so much from water that they burst, but plant cells avoid bursting thanks to their cell wall.


Give one feature of a cell wall which allows the cell to become turgid?

The rigid structure of the cell wall allows a plant cell to become turgid by providing structural support and preventing the cell from bursting as water enters and creates pressure against the cell wall.
