Explain the TP and WP.
Answers
Answer:
hey here is your answer
Normally wall pressure is equal and opposite to turgor pressure (WP =TP) except when the cell become flaccid. The value of the two forces continue to rise with the continued entry of water, till the cell becomes fully turgid.
hope it help you ☺️
Answer:
TP or Turgor pressure is the pressure developed inside the cell due to the entry of a solvent and it's magnitude depends on the amount of water that enters the cell.
WP or wall pressure is the force exerted by the cell wall against the Turgor pressure and hence it's magnitude depends on the magnitude of the Turgor pressure and the nature of the cell wall. Usually Wall pressure is equal to Turgor pressure.
Explanation:
Turgidity is useful for plants as :
1. Maintains the rigidity of the cell.
2. Makes the surface of leaf properly available to sunlight by proper orientation.
3. Helps in opening of Stomata by the guard cells.
4. Essential for maintaining the shape and normal growth of cell.
5. Helps in movement of phloem sap.
