Which consequence results when osmotic pressure is insufficient in actively transporting nutrients in a water lily?

💡 Explanation

Insufficient osmotic pressure causes water to leave plant cells via osmosis resulting in a loss of rigidity, therefore the plant wilts, because turgor pressure isn't maintained, rather than maintaining internal hydrostatic pressure against its cell walls.
