Q. Two cells A and B are contiguous. Cell-A has osmotic pressure-10 atm, turgor pressure-7 atm and diffusion pressure deficit-3 atm. Cell-B has osmotic pressure-8 atm, turgor pressure-3 atm and diffusion pressure deficit 5 atm. The result will be
A) Movement of water from cell-B to A
B) No movement of water
C) Equilibrium between the two
D) Movement of water from cell-A to B
Explanation
