Two cells A and B are contiguous. Cell A has osmotic pressure , turgor pressure and diffusion pressure deficit . Cell B has osmotic pressure , turgor pressure and diffusion pressure deficit . The result will be:

  1. A
    Movement of water from cell B to A
  2. B
    No movement of water
  3. C
    Equilibrium between the two
  4. D
    Movement of water from cell A to B

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Water always moves from a region of lower Diffusion Pressure Deficit (DPD) to a region of higher DPD.


Since , water will move from Cell A to Cell B.
