Expand and Define TP?

Answer»

TP stands for Turgor pressure. When a plant cell is placed in pure water (hypotonie solution) the diffusion of water into the cell takes place by endosmosis. It creates a positive hydrostatic pressure on the rigid cell wall by the cell membrane.

Hence forth the pressure exerted by the ccli membrane towards the cell wall is Turgor Pressure (TP).
