Solution

The correct option is A Turgor pressure
Turgor pressure is the water pressure maintained by the osmosis. It is also known as the driving force for cell extension, any general theory of plant growth requires quantitative information on the relationship between steady irreversible growth rate and turgor pressure. At constant turgor pressure, growth is irreversible.
