Vedclass · Answer

(A) When water enters a plant cell, it creates a pressure against the cell wall due to the swelling of the protoplast. This pressure is known as Turgor pressure $(P)$.In response, the rigid cell wall exerts an equal and opposite pressure on the protoplast, which is known as Wall pressure $(Q)$.Therefore, $P = 	ext{Turgor pressure}$ and $Q = 	ext{Wall pressure}$.

The pressure exerted by the entry of water on the cell wall is called $.....P.....$, and the pressure exerted by the cell wall on the protoplast is called $.....Q.....$.
