Detailed explanation-1: -turgor, Pressure exerted by fluid in a cell that presses the cell membrane against the cell wall. Turgor is what makes living plant tissue rigid. Loss of turgor, resulting from the loss of water from plant cells, causes flowers and leaves to wilt.

Detailed explanation-2: -When water enters the cell of a plant cytoplasm and exerts an outward pressure and that pressure is called turgor pressure.

Detailed explanation-3: -Turgor pressure is the hydrostatic pressure in excess of ambient atmospheric pressure which can build up in living, walled cells. Turgor is generated through osmotically driven inflow of water into cells across a selectively permeable membrane; this membrane is typically the plasma membrane.

Detailed explanation-4: -Water pushes the cellular membranes against the cell wall of the cell, causing turgor pressure. Whenever turgor pressure is high, the cell’s membrane put pressure on the cell wall, resulting in turgidity. The cell becomes flaccid when the turgor pressure is low.

Detailed explanation-5: -Generally, turgor pressure is caused by the osmotic flow of water and occurs in plants, fungi, and bacteria. The phenomenon is also observed in protists that have cell walls. This system is not seen in animal cells, as the absence of a cell wall would cause the cell to lyse when under too much pressure.
