Osmosis is the transfer of solvent from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration. Explore more about the definition of osmosis and osmotic pressure.

Therefore, a large part of the cell's physiology is placed in detecting and responding to environmental stresses, including (osmotic, hydrostatic) pressure, shear, flow, stretch, and compression. Conversion of mechanical sensation into intracellular signals that modifies the cellular response is called...
Cells are under threat of osmotic perturbation; cell volume maintenance is critical in cerebral edema, inflammation and aging, in which prominent changes in intracellular or extracellular osmolality emerge. After osmotic stress-enforced cell swelling or
Osmotic pressure in biology Osmotic pressure plays a key role in biological systems. The cell membrane, for example, acts as a semipermeable membrane subject to osmotic pressure based on the cell’s external environment. A hypotonic environment outside the cell can cause the cell to swell or ...

Under drought stress conditions, stem and root meristematic cells are influenced. Then, the cell division and elongation are disrupted, and this causes the declined stem and root length. Moreover, the turgor pressure decreases under water deficit needed for cell enlargement [33]. Furthermore, droug...
