Question - Which of the following is true in a fully turgid cell? 
Options:
A .  TP = 0
B .  WP = 0
C .  DPD = 0
D .  OP = 0
Answer: Option C
:
C
The amount by which diffusion pressure of a solution is lower than that of the pure solvent is known as diffusion pressure deficit. DPD = OP - TP. When water enters into the cell, TP increases, turgidity increases and cell wall develops equal and opposite wall pressure. At the state of equilibrium, DPD will become zero.
