Answer 1

Answer:

1. Turgid Condition

2. Turgor pressure

3. flaccid state

4. deplasmolysed

Answer 2

Answer:

(i) Turgidity

(i) TurgidityExplanation: Turgidity is the state of a cell in which the cell wall is rigid and inflated because of the increase in size of vacuoles due to absorption of water.
