You place a flaccid plant cell (Ψ = -0.7 MPa) into an environment (beaker) of pure (deionized) water (Ψ = 0 MPa). Compare the initial conditions of the flaccid cell and the environment (beaker of pure water) in terms of:
G) Predict the direction of water movement (into the cell, out of the cell, or no net movement)
H) Predict the change in turgor pressor of the cell (increase turgor pressure or decrease turgor pressure)
I) Predict the fate of the cell (plasmolyzed, turgid, or lysed)

The leaves of the plant in front of the fan had the highest initial water potential and therefore lost the most water. The control plant had lower initial water potential in the root area and therefore lost less water. The control plant had a lower initial mass and so lost water at a decreased rate. The fan rapidly moves water molecules away from the leaf surface, lowering the water potential.arrow_forward
