Chapter 36.4, Problem 4CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: The cooling effect of evaporation on leaves.
Concept introduction: Transpiration is the process of evaporation of water from the leaves of the plant. Water is absorbed by the roots and transported to the leaves. While stomata are open during the exchange of gases, transpiration occurs during photosynthesis.

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.

- Properties of Water & Membrane Function Dr. Isley (a.k.a. Poison Ivy) is teaching a master class on botany. Explain to her the following concepts so that she will keep her promise to release Batman and Robin from captivity! Part 1: Plants absorb water through special cells in their roots. For the water to enter the root cells, does the water need to be hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic to the inside of the cell? Briefly explain your reasoning? Part 2: Based on your answer in Part 1, would there be more hydration shells in the extracellular (surrounding) water or inside of the root cells? (one word answer) Part 3: First, explain why water is a polar molecule. Then, discuss how the polar nature of water allows it to form hydrogen bonds with other polar molecules and how this relates to the ability for water to form hydration shells.arrow_forwardPLANT PHYSIOLOGY Water Transport in Plants 2.
