Question

Mention the uses of turgor pressure .

Answer 1

Dear student.

Turgor pressure is the pressure of the cell contents against the cell wall in plant cells. In hypotonic solution, water diffuses into the cell and cells enlarge and extension growth occurs.As water diffuses in, cytoplasm builds up a pressure against the cell wall. This pressure is called turgor pressure.

Turgor pressure is required for opening of stomata for transpiration to occur.
