What is the force that causes turgor pressure?
The force that causes turgor pressure is osmosis.
What is The pressure exerted against the cell membrane and cell wall known as?
hydrostatic pressure or turgor (same thing)
Turgor pressure occurs in what kind of solution?
Turgor pressure is usually calculated as the difference between water potential and osmotic potential. In herbaceous plants turgor pressure is almost solely responsible for maintaining an erect habit. Wilting of leaves is due to loss of turgor in the leaf.
The internal pressure of a plant cell is called what?
turgor pressure, also turgidity, is the main pressure exerted by cell contents against the cell walls in plant cells
What tonic maintains turgor pressure?
It is the vietnamese tonic
Wilting is counteracted by?
Turgor Pressure
What is the force that causes turgor pressure?
The force that causes turgor pressure is osmosis.
How can you tell if a plant has a decreased turgor pressure?
A plant wilts when it has a decreased turgor pressure.
The pressure that is exerted on the inside of cell walls and that is caused by the movement of water into the cell?
Osmotic pressure across the cell wall, here called Turgor Pressure.
Does turgor pressure in a hypertonic solution increase or decrease?
more solutes = less osmotic pressure = decreased turgor pressure
What is the structure associated with resisting turgor pressure?
The plasma membrane is the structure associated with resisting turgor pressure.
