Osmotic pressure (OP) of a cell is 3 bar...

Osmotic pressure (OP) of a cell is 3 bar and diffusion pressure dificit (DPD) is 2.1 bar. Calculate the turgor pressure (TP) of that cell.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know thhat ,
DPD = OP - TP
TP = OP - DPD
=3-2.1 bar
=0.9 bar
`therefore` The turgor pressure (TP) of that cell is 0.9 bar.
