DPD is the amount by which the diffusion pressure of a solution is less than it's pure solvent.
Let's take an example.
Cell A hai and Cell B hai. Diffusion A to B ho Raha hai.
What can we infer from this?
A ka water potential zyada hai B se.
Isko agar DPD ke terms me define karna pade, toh we will say A ka DPD B se Kam hai.
Remember, Low DPD to High DPD diffusudi hota hai. Reverse of Aater potential concentration concept.
DPD = Osmotic Pressure - Wall Pressure (Turgor Pressure)
Let's take a question.
Cell A has Osmotic Pressure of 10atm and Turgor Pressure of 6atm. Cell B has Osmotic Pressure of 10atm and Turgor Pressure of 4atm. Find out that in which direction water movement will occur.
DPD of A = OP-TP = 10-6 = 4
DPD of B = OP-TP = 10-4 = 6
Hence water movement will occur from A to B.
If you want to cross check, Turgor Pressure se kar sakte ho. A ka TP 6 hai, yani more water. B ka 4 hai, yani less water. Water potential concept se A to B hi hoga . ( High to Low)
Low DPD to high DPD diffusion hota hai.**
Reverse of water potential concept. **
