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.

Energy-producing organelles are the _____.?
Fittoniya [83]
<span>Cells responsible of making energy and performing respiration within the cell. Depending on what type of organism they are found at, they can be known as Mitochondria, if they are in animals; and if they are in plants, Chloroplasts.
Mitochondria create energy for the cell by breaking down sugars, fats, and other fuels consumed by the cell.
Chloroplasts, on the other hand, since they are found at plants, convert sunlight into energy.</span>

Anna11 [10]

The standard plate count (SPC) method involves diluting 1.0m of bacterial culture into a series of water blanks, and then taking a sample from the water blanks to add to empty petri plates which will be filled with melted agar.

The standard plate count is a method used in microbiology, which is used to gain an insight to estimate the density of bacterial population which is present in a bacterial culture broth. This is done by plating a small concentration of the culture in a petri-dish and then counting the colonies which form in the petri-plate. This method is used mostly in the food industry, to find the density of mesophilic bacteria in food. This method is extremely essential to determine the primary source of the bacterial contaminant.
