Chapter 36.1, Problem 2LO
Summary Introduction

To determine: The water potential of a cell.

Introduction: The tendency or ability of water to flow from one region to another through osmosis under the influence of gravitational force and mechanical force is called water potential. In plants, movement of water takes place on the basis of water potential.

Indicate with an arrow which direction water would move through. What is the physical condition of the cell? What is the hypothetical concentrations of solvent and solute?
Explain the role of osmosis and that of osmotic pressure in controlling the movement of water across the cell membrane. Compare hypotonic, isotonic, and hypertonic solutions.
For your first experiment you make a membrane of pure myristic acid and measure the melting curve (shown below). Label the position on the plot that indicates the melting temperature (Tm). In the space below describe the physical basis for the observed temperature response of the membrane. Also draw the melting curve for stearic acid membrane Membrane Fluidity Temperature
