Answer:
Diffusion Pressure Deficit (DPD):
- Diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) is the difference between diffusion pressure of pure water and solution.
- DPD is also called suction force (SF) or suction pressure (SP).
- DPD, i.e. diffusion pressure deficit of a solution is initially equal to its osmotic pressure (OP).
- When water enters into a cell, the increasing turgor pressure (TP), forces the cytoplasm against cell wall.
- The cell wall exerts an equal and opposite pressure (WP) on the cell sap. This can be represented as:
DPD = OP-TP (WP)
In this, DPD is diffusion pressure deficit, OP is osmotic pressure, TP is turgor pressure and WP is wall pressure.
