A hydrostatic pressure caused by a difference in the amounts of solutes between solutions that are separated by a semi-permeable membrane. Osmotic pressure reduces water potential, which is the tendency of water moving from one area to another. Thus, it is necessary in plant cells for turgidity and support.

Answer:
cosmetic pressure is of vital importance in biology as cell's membrane is selective towards many of the solutes found in living organisms. when a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water actually flows out of the cell into the surrounding solution thereby causing the cells to shrink and lose its turgidity
