The real forces responsible for the movement of water from one cell to another cell is mainly

  • Osmotic Pressure (OP)

  • Turgor Pressure (TP)

  • Diffusion Pressure Deficit (DPD)

C.

Diffusion Pressure Deficit (DPD)

The net force with which water is drawn into a cell is equal to difference of OP and TP, known as diffusion pressure deficit or suction pressure. DPD of pure water is maximum (= 1236 atm) solvent moves from cell of low DPD to high DPD. DPD, or SP= OP-TP.
