Solve this:

44.   Osmotic pressure of a cell is zero when

(1)  T. P. is maximum    (2)  DPD is maximum     (3)  T. P. is zero    (4)  Not possible

Dear student
Please find below the solution to the asked query

The correct option is (4).

• If the cell is turgid, the osmotic pressure (OP) is equal to turgor pressure (TP).
• If the cell is flaccid, the turgor pressure almost becomes zero and osmotic pressure is equal to diffusion pressure deficit (DPD).
• If the cell is plasmolysed, here also OP is not equal to zero.

Hence, it is not possible.

 
Hope this information will clear your doubts about the topic.
