Question

The cell sap keeps the cell turgid and maintains imbibition equilibrium of the cell. true or false​

Answer 1

Answer:

When a cell is fully turgid, its walls and membranes are completely stretched. At this time osmotic pressure of the cell will be equal to turgor pressure and so water potential becomes zero. A turgid cell cannot absorb any more water.

When DPD is zero, entry of water will stop. Thus it is DPD that tends t equate and represents water absorbing ability of the cell, it is also called suction pressure.
