- Diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) is the amount by which two solutions differ in their diffusion pressure.
- It is defined as the amount by which the diffusion pressure of water or solvent in a solution is lower than that of pure water or solvent is known as diffusion pressure deficit. It allows for easy absorption of water due to the diffusion pressure gradient. Water moves from lower DPD to higher DPD.
- It is equal to the difference between osmotic pressure and turgor pressure.
- DPD of a cell is influenced by both osmotic pressure and wall pressure (turgor pressure) which opposes the endosmotic entry of water, i.e. DPD = OP - wall pressure.

Actual flow of water is decided by the deficit in diffusion pressure. More the dissolved solute particles greater will be the deficit in diffusion pressure and lesser the number of solute particles lesser will be deficit in diffusion pressure. One more component is the wall pressure which is equal and opposite to the turgor pressure. Mathematically expressed DPD is equal to OP - TP. Water moves from an area of lower DPD to an area of higher DPD.

Diffusion
The actual pressure with which water enters into a cell is 'Diffusion Pressure Deficit' or DPD. It can be calculated as the difference in the osmotic pressure and turgor pressure. Osmotic pressure causes movement of water into the cell and develops because of the solutes dissolved in the solution of cell sap. On the other hand the turgor pressure is an opposing force, which works in the direction opposite to the movement of water and prevents entry of water into the cell. Turgor pressure develops because of the entry of water into the cell.
The osmotic parameter determining flow of water from one cell to another is
-
Osmotic pressure
-
Turgor pressure
-
Diffusion pressure deficit
-
Hydrostatic pressure
Diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) is a negative measurement to understand the flow of water from one cell to another. It is important to note that we are considering deficit in diffusion pressure and not diffusion pressure. As a rule, water always flows from lower DPD to higher DPD. This is because lesser the dissolved salts, lesser will be the deficit (so low DPD) and more the dissolved salts more will the deficit (so high DPD). As you can guess water will flow from a region of lower dissolved salts (i.e., low DPD) towards a region of more dissolved salts (i.e., higher DPD).
Which of the following is not correct about $DPD$?
-
Its the loss of diffusion pressure
-
Maximum valu of $DPD$ is equal to $OP$
-
$DPD$ of pure $H _{2}O$ is zero
-
Increase in $TP$ of a cell decreases $DPD$
The term diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) is the reduction in the diffusion pressure of water in solution or cell over its pure state due to presence of solutes in it and forces opposing diffusion. Diffusion pressure of water is maximum and its theoretical value is 1236 atm. DPD of a solution is equal to its osmotic pressure i.e. DPD = OP(of solution). DPD of a cell is influence by both osmotic pressure and wall pressure (turgor pressure) which opposes the endosmotic entry of water, i.e. DPD = OP - Wall pressure. DPD is directly proportional to the concentration of the solution. DPD decreases with dilution of solution. The actual pressure with which cell absorbs water is called "suction pressure".
Which of the following is incorrectly match :-
-
For fully turgid cell $ \Rightarrow $ DPD $ = 0 $
-
DPD of solution is vessel $ \Rightarrow $ $ OP - TP = 0 $
-
For full turgid cell $ \Rightarrow OP = TP $
-
DPD for a flaccid cell $ \Rightarrow DPD = OP $
It is reduction in the diffusion pressure of water in solution or cell over its pure state due to presence of solutes in it and forces opposing diffusion. Diffusion pressure of water is maximum and its theoretical value is 1236 atm. DPD of a solution is equal to its osmotic pressure i.e. DPD = OP(of solution) and in this case the DPD is not zero. For a turgid cell OP=TP and DPD=0. DPD for a flaccid cell is maximum and is equal to OP.

Diffusion pressure deficit or DPD is the difference between the pressure of a solution and a pure solvent. It is also called as suction pressure. In order to achieve the equilibrium or attain zero value of DPD, the solvent from low solute concentration or low DPD to high solute concentration or high DPD. In other words, the diffusion pressure deficit is equal to the total of osmotic pressure and turgor pressure. DPD is maximum in pure water. In a flaccid cell, there is no movement of water. In a flaccid cell, there is no turgor pressure. Hence, DPD is equal to the osmotic pressure.

'Diffusion pressure deficit' (DPD) is also known as suction pressure (SP). DPD is responsible for movement of water in a plant. Water moves from a region or cell of low DPD to a cell or region of high DPD. The DPD is calculated as the difference of osmotic pressure (which is responsible for entry of water into a cell) and turgor pressure (which opposes entry of water into a cell).
Water enters from the soil into the root hairs due to
-
Turgor pressure of root hair
-
Osmotic pressure of root hair

Diffusion pressure
Suction pressure is same as DPD (Diffusion Pressure Deficit). Water moves in a plant due to suction pressure or DPD from a region of lower DPD to a region of higher DPD.

OP
-
DPD
-
WP
Osmotic pressure of a cell is zero, when
-
T.P. is maximum
-
DPD is maximum
-
T.P. is zero
-
Not possible
Osmotic pressure is the pressure responsible for osmosis in the plant. Osmotic pressure depends on the concentration of solute particles in the cell sap. More the concentration of solute particles more the osmotic pressure. The osmotic pressure of cell sap can never be zero, because always there will be some or the other solute particles present in the cell sap.
The real force responsible for the movement of water from cell to cell is
-
OP
-
TP
-
DPD
-
WP
DPD stands for diffusion pressure deficit. The deficit in diffusion pressure depends on the number of solute particles present in the system. In a plant body, water moves from a region of low DPD to a region of high DPD. This is understandable because low DPD means low solute concentration or high concentration of solvent molecules and vice versa for high DPD.
The term "DPD" was coined by
-
Renner
-
Kramer
-
B. S. Mayer

Stephen Hales
The amount by which the diffusion pressure of a solution is lower than that of the pure solvent is called as 'diffusion pressure deficit' (DPD). The term diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) was coined by B.S Meyer in 1938. Originally DPD was described as suction pressure by Renner (1915).
If the given solution is of 25% concentration; then what cannot be presented for this
-
OP
-
DPD
-
Solute potential
-
TP
When a cell is immersed in water, then water enter into the cell because the osmotic pressure of the cell sap is higher. The cell content develops a pressure against the cell wall, which is called turgor pressure. If the given solution is of 25% concentration; then it can not represent TP(turgor pressure) because pressure cannot be expressed in terms of concentration.
In a fully turgid cell, the values of DPD, OP and TP will show the tendency
-
DPD$=$10atm, OP$=$15atm, TP$=$5atm
-
DPD$=$5atm, OP$=$12atm, TP$=$7atm
-
DPD$=$2atm, OP$=$7atm, TP$=$5atm
-
DPD$=$0atm, OP$=$15atm, TP$=$15atm
In a fully turgid cell there will be no net movement of water. Neither water will move inside nor move outside. This is because DPD will be zero. DPD can be zero, when the osmotic pressure, which causes movement of water inside the cell equals to turgor pressure, which opposes the entry of water inside the cell.
When the mesophyll cells lose water, their DPD will
-
Increase
-
Decrease
-
Remain constant
-
None of the above is applicable
When the mesophyll cells lose water the concentration of solutes will increase. Consequently, the OP will increase concomitantly, there will be a drop in turgor and TP will decrease. These changes will increase the DPD. Water moves from lower DPD to higher DPD, thus, water will gain entry into the cells, whose DPD has increased.

TP
-
DPD
-
DP
A and B cells are contiguous. Cell $1$ has OP$=10$ atm. TP=$7$ atm and DPD$=3$ atm. Cell $2$ has OP $=8$atm, TP$=3$ atm and DPD$=5$ atm. The result would be __________________.
-
No movement of water
-

A plasmolysed cell placed in hypotonic solution then the water enter in it, the force which is responsible for it is __________.
-
DPD
-
OP
-
WP
-
None of these
Answer is option B i.e. "OP"
Hypotonic solution is one in which the solution kept outside the cell has lower solute concentration than the fluid inside the cell. The process being investigated is osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane from a more dilute solution (with a lower solute concentration) to a less dilute solution (with a higher solute concentration). Therefore cell absorbs or sucks water with a force equal to O.P
In a plant cell the diffusion pressure deficit is zero when it is
-
Plasmolysed.
-
Turgid.
-
Flaccid.
-
Incipient.
Diffusion Pressure Deficit = osmotic pressure - wall pressure. Wall pressure is the same as Turgor pressure. When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution water enters the cell. Hence its osmotic pressure decreases and the turgor pressure increases. In a fully turgid cell the turgor pressure becomes equal to the osmotic pressure. Hence the Diffusion Pressure Deficit becomes zero in a turgid cell. Thus the correct answer is option B.
The force which determines the flow of water from one cell to another is
-
T.P.
-
D.P.D
-
O.P.
-
W.P.
Root hair absorb water from soil due to
-
Osmotic pressure
-
Turgor pressure
-
Suction pressure
-
Root pressure
Suction pressure is the decrease in the diffusion pressure of solution over its pure state due to the presence of solute particles in it. The concentration of solute is higher in root hair cells as compared to soil water. So suction pressure builds up and water is drawn towards root hair cells. These water molecules are transported to different parts of the plant. So, the correct answer is 'Suction pressure'.
DPD is abbreviated form of
-
Daily photosynthetic deficit
-
Daily phosphorus deficit
-
Daily pressure deficit
-
Diffusion pressure deficit
The movement of water is along the
-
Turgor gradient
-
DPD gradient
-
Diffusion gradient
-
Osmotic gradient
DPD is the diffusion pressure deficit. When a cell is put in a hypertonic solution (solution with the high concentration of solutes than the solute concentration ), a water potential or DPD gradient is created between the cell and the external solution. Hence the water diffuses out of the cell; the process is called exosmosis. Thus water movement is due to DPD gradient not because of turgor gradient, diffusion gradient and osmotic gradient.

DPD is the difference between Osmotic pressure and Turgor pressure.
Which of the following is correct about DPD?
-
DPD is the reduction in diffusion pressure of solvent in a system over its pure state
-
DPD = OP - TP
-
DPD is zero, entry of water will stop
-
All of the above
DPD is diffusion pressure deficit. It is the reduction in the diffusion pressure of solvent in a system over its pure state due to presence of solutes in it and forces opposing diffusion. Pure solvent has the maximum diffusion pressure. DPD is the difference between the osmotic pressure (OP) and turgor pressure (TP). When a cell is turgid, its OP is equal to TP and DPD is zero. When DPD is zero, the entry of water will stop as turgid cell cannot absorb any more water.
Which of the following is not correct about DPD?
-
It is the loss of diffusion pressure
-
Maximum value of DPD is equal to OP
-
DPD of pure water is zero
-
Low DPD means small gap between the value of OP and TP
DPD or diffusion pressure deficit is the difference between the diffusion pressure of a solution and a pure solvent when both are subjected to the same atmospheric pressure. Since pure water does not contain any solute particles, therefore it has zero DPD. Movement of water is always from low DPD to high DPD. When increasing turgor pressure becomes equal to decreasing osmotic pressure, the entry of water into the cell would stop.
Which option is true for a fully turgid cell?
-
OP $=$ DPD
-
OP $=$ zero
-
DPD $=$ Zero
-
TP $=$ Zero
As the cell becomes fully turgid, the value of turgor pressure becomes
equal to that of solute potential $(\Psi _s)$ so that water potential
$(\Psi _w)$ or DPD becomes either zero or equal to that of external
hypotonic solution.
$\Psi _w=\Psi _s+\Psi _p=0$
Which of the following equations is correct in respect of osmotic phenomenon ?
-
DPD = OP - TP
-
DPD = OP + TP
-
DPD = OP $\times$ TP
-
DPD = OP $\div$ TP
DPD = Diffusion pressure deficit
If DPD represents diffusion pressure deficit, OP is the osmotic pressure and TP is the turgor pressure, then which of the following equations is correct?
-
DPD $=$ OP $=$ TP
-
DPD $=$ OP $+$ TP
-
DPD $=$ OP $-$ TP
-
DPD $=$ OP
The reduction in the diffusion pressure of water in a solution over its
pure state is called diffusion pressure deficit or DPD. Diffusion
pressure deficit is also called suction pressure. It value is equal to
the osmotic pressure or potential (OP) (positive value taken in bars or
atm) of the solution in a cell or system minus the wall pressure (WP)
($=$ turgor pressure, TP) which opposes the entry of water into it
provided the external water is pure DPD $=$ OP $-$ WP ($=$TP)
Water moves from a cell with __________ DPD to a cell with ________ DPD.
-
Higher, Lower
-
Lower, higher
-
Lower, lower
-
Higher, higher
DPD (diffusion pressure deficit) opposes the diffusion process. so from that we conclude that water moves from a cell with lower DPD to a cell with higher DPD.
Correct option is B.
When a plasmolysed cell is placed in a hypotonic solution then water will move inside the cell this will happen due to which force?
-
Diffusion Pressure Deficit
-
Osmotic Pressure
-
Wall Pressure
-
None of the above
A and B are contiguous cells. A has osmotic pressure (OP) = 10 atm. Turgor pressure (TP) = 7 atm and Diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) = 3atm. B has OP = 8 atm, TP = 3 atm, DPD = 5 atm. The direction taken by the water would be
-
No movement of water
-
Equilibrium between the two
-
Movement of water from A to B
-
Movement of water from B to A
Movement of water from A to B since water flows in the direction from low DPD to high DPD. 'A' cell has lower DPD than 'B' so the movement of water from A cell to B cell will be the correct answer.
In a plant cell DPD is zero when it is
-
Plasmolysed
-
Turgid
-
Flaccid
-
Incipient
A cell is fully turgid means it is full of water i.e, it cannot absorb any more water. In a fully turgid cell DPD (Diffusion Pressure Deficit) is zero and the net movement of water into the cell stops satisfying the equation DPD = OP + TP. Therefore, for the fully turgid cells has DPD is zero satisfying osmotic pressure (OP) and turgor pressure (TP) must be equal, when a cell absorbs more and more water turgor pressure increases thereby it will be positive value and osmotic pressure decreases hence it is negative value.
Arrange root hair cell, inner cortical cell and mesophyll cell in ascending order of DPD.

-
Root hair cell, mesophyll cell and cortical cell
DPD means deficit pressure diffusion. Roots absorb water through root hairs. For the absorption of water, there should be a concentration gradient between root hair and soil.
