Question

What is the difference between root pressure and turgor pressure and pls write the importance of both.

Answer 1

Answer:

Sol: Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted by the cytoplasm on the cell wall. During osmosis, when the cell is placed in a hypotonic solution (solution with less solutes and higher water potential) water moves from solution into the cells. This causes the cytoplasm to build the pressure against the cell wall. This pressure is called as turgor pressure. This pressure is exerted by the protoplast against the cell wall due to the entry of water is called as pressure potential. It is the turgor pressure in the plant cells which helps the plants to be erect. As the cell walls are strong, cells do not rupture but enlarge in size to cause extension in growth. Wall pressure is the pressure applied by the cell wall on the contents of the cell. Wall pressure is opposite to the turgor pressure.

I hope this helps you

Thanks!

Answer 2

Explanation:

Turgor pressure is the pressure of the cell contents on the cell wall. Wall pressure is the pressure exerted by the cell wall on the cell content. Guttation is the process by which drops of water appear along leaf margins due to excessive root pressure. Bleeding is the loss of cell sap through a cut stem.
