Question

If op for a solution is 2atm then calculate dpd of cell having pressure potential 2pa

Answer 1

Answer:

DPD = 0 atm, OP = 15 atm, TP = 15 atm

Explanation:

The diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) is the force responsible for movement of water. In plants water moves from a region of low DPD to high DPD. The DPD is calculated as algebraic difference of osmotic pressure (OP) and turgor pressure (TP). In a fully turgid DPD will be 0 as a fully turgid cell will not absorb water and values of OP and TP shall be equal.
