define turgor pressure and wall pressure, also how these pressues are related to each other ?

The pressure developed by the fluid in a plant cell, against the cell wall, as a result of endosmosis is called turgor pressure. Turgid plant cells contain more water than flaccid cells and exert a greater osmotic pressure on its cell walls.

Cell wall of the plants exert an equal and opposite pressure against the turgor pressure. This pressure is known as wall pressure.

As suggested by definition wall pressure is equal and opposite of turgor pressure.
