Summary Introduction
To explain:
The lowering of temperature of the leaves by the evaporation.
Introduction:
The process of loss of water through the stomata pores present on aerial parts of shoots is called transpiration. A large volume of water is absorbed by the roots of the plant, but a portion of it is used for plant growth and its

QUESTION 1
Water potential is the pressure exerted by freely moving water molecules in a
system. Describe the relationship between water potential with solute potential
and
pressure potential in plants.
Plant cell P has a solute potential of-350 kPa and a pressure potential of 200 kPa.
Besides, is plant cell Q which has a solute potential of -500 kPa and a pressure
potential of 200 kPa. Determine the direction of net movement of water between
the two cells by using the water potential equation.
Explain the characteristics of water that make it such an important medium for
life. If an athlete was heavily perspiring after an intense match game, suggest one
type of replacement drink (with explanation) that he should take between
hypertonic, isotonic and hypotonic drink to recover himself.

Also, we can’t deny the fact that as time goes by, the amount of carbon rises making it more complicated for the rest of organisms to adapt and survive. In relation to their specialized features, predict how C4 and CAM plants will each respond to a doubling of the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere.arrow_forwardPart F - How to determine transpiration rates by the whole plant method Which of the following best explains why the plant in front of the fan lost more mass than the control plant in normal room conditions? 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
