    Question

    The movement of water molecule from one cell to another depends on -

    A.

    Wall pressure

    B.

    Turgor pressure

    C.

    Plasma pressure

    D.

    Osmotic concentration

    Correct option is D

    The correct answer is (d) Osmotic concentration.
    · The movement of water molecules from one cell to another primarily depends on the osmotic concentration (or osmotic potential) of the cells.
    · Water moves by osmosis from areas of lower osmotic concentration (higher water potential) to areas of higher osmotic concentration (lower water potential) across the cell membranes.
    · This process helps in maintaining cell turgidity and plays a crucial role in the transport of water within plant tissues.
    Additional Information:
    · Wall pressure : This is the pressure exerted by the cell wall, but it does not directly drive water movement between cells.
    · Turgor pressure : This pressure is the result of water entering the cell, maintaining cell rigidity, but it’s not the primary factor for water movement.
    · Plasma pressure : This is not a relevant term in cellular water movement and does not directly impact osmosis.
