Question

The cell is fully turgid when

• A. DPD $=$ TP
• B. OP $=$ DPD
• C. DPD $=$ SP
• D. DPD $=$ zero

Answer 1

The correct option is D DPD $=$ zero

Under conditions of turgidity the DPD will be zero and osmotic pressure will be equal to turgor pressure. Thus the force responsible for entry of water into the cell will be equal to the force opposing entry of water into the cell.
