The solute potential of a plant cell is -10 bar, and its pressure potential is 3. The plant cell is placed into a solution with

a water potential of -10 bar.

The water potential of the cell would be -7 bar and thus, water will move from the cell to the surrounding solution.

Recall that:

Water potential = pressure potential + solute potential

For the plant cell, solute potential = -10, pressure potential = 3

Water potential of the cell = 3-10

                                          = -7 bar

The water potential of the cell is -7 bar while that of the surrounding solution is -10 bar. Thus, the cell has a higher water potential than the surrounding solution.

Recall that water usually moves from the region of high to the region of low water potential. Therefore, water will move from the cell to the surrounding solution.

Why is the phloem in a leaf important to the roots of a plant apex?
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- phloem transports photsynthetic products to the roots

Explanation:

Phloem is the vascular tissue which specializes in transporting the solute molecules like sugar in the form of sucrose to in the plants.

The phloem connects the photosynthetic organ (Leaves)  to non-photosynthetic organs (stem and roots) of the plants by transporting the photosynthates or sucrose to various parts.

Since the roots also need the energy to perform metabolic functions so need the photosynthates to synthesize the energy molecule. They receive the photosynthates from the phloem.

Thus, phloem transports photosynthetic products to the roots is the correct answer.
