Water Potential
BIOXI11: TRANSPORT IN PLANTS

336538 The two main components which determine water potential are

1 Solute potential
2 Pressure potential
3 Osmotic potential
4 1 and 2
BIOXI11: TRANSPORT IN PLANTS

336539 The water potential of purewater is

1 Less than zero
2 More than zero but less than one
3 More than one
4 Zero

336540 Water tends to move into a cell that has

1 High turgor pressure
2 High positive \(\Psi_{w}\)
3 Low turgor pressure
4 More negative \(\Psi_{w}\)

336541 Statement A :
If a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure is applied to pure water or a solution, its water potential decreases.
Statement B :
Pressure potential is usually positive.

1 Statement A is correct but Statement B is incorrect.
2 Statement A is incorrect but Statement B is correct.
3 Both statements are correct.
4 Both Statements are incorrect.
