MCQ
When a flaccid cell is placed in water:
  • Its $\text{OP}$ increses
  • B
    Its $\text{TP}$ increses
  • C
    Its $\text{DPP}$ increses
  • D
    All of these

Answer

Correct option: A.
Its $\text{OP}$ increses
$\text{OP}$ is Osmotic pressure which is the hydrostatic pressure developed in a solution when it is separated from pure solvent by a semi permeable membrane in a rigid vessel.
When the flaccid cell is placed in water then the pure solvent is water, the cytoplasm of the cell is solution and the sell membrane is semi permeable membrane.
