Without sufficient water‚ turgor pressure drops and the plant wilts. Cell Wall (plant cells only): Plant cells have a rigid‚ protective

GLUCOSE -6- PHOSPHATE DEHYDROGENASE DEFICIENCY DISEASE Keith Portillo 23 March 2007 Abstract: Glucose-6-phospate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD)‚ an X-linked inherited disease‚ is due to the lack of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. This enzyme is present in red blood cells and its deficiency can lead to hemolytic anemia.
