Question

The plant cell's rigid cell wall prevents it from

bursting, but what keeps a plant upright?
A. cell walls
B. turgor pressure
C. cell membranes

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A turgid cell is a cell that has turgor pressure. ... The resulting influx of water leads to a large turgor pressure being exerted against the plant cell wall. This makes the cell turgid. The presence of the cell wall in plants prevents the cell from bursting (osmotic lysis), which happens in a cell lacking a cell wall.
