Osmotic pressure is the pressure that must be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of water across a semipermeable membrane, driven by differences in solute concentration.
Turgor Pressure
Turgor Pressure is the force within the cell that pushes the plasma membrane against the cell wall, crucial for maintaining plant cell structure and rigidity.
