ICSE Class 10 Answered
can turgor pressure cause bleeding in plants?
Asked by saibaba1069 | 19 Apr, 2020, 11:44: PM
Expert Answer
- Turgor pressure is the force within the cell that pushes the plasma membrane against the cell wall.
- The root pressure generated by a plant forces the cell sap to rise through the stem. This causes bleeding or oozing of the cell sap from the cut surface of the plant.
- Excess of turgor pressure can cause the cell to burst and less pressure can cause the plant to wilt.
- Hence, turgor pressure may not be directly responsible for bleeding in plants.
