Solution
The correct option is B Turgidity Turgidity is the state of a cell in which the cell wall is fully expanded due to the absorption of water up to last limit. Turgidity is essential in plant cells to make them keep standing upright. Plant cells that lose much water have less turgor pressure, and tend to become flaccid.
