Problem #1
Here you have two cells. Your job is to fill in the missing values for the
water potential factors.
Some values are given. Some values you know from the
kind of cell. Others you know from the information given.
Still further values you get from arithmetic.

Problem #1 - a
Strategy: First fill in what you know because of what kind of cell it is.
Then we will fill in values based on further information given.
Lastly, we will do the arithmetic to get the remaining values.
The left cell is a (live) leaf mesophyll cell. This tells you its
matric potential. Fill it in now on your copy. Click to check

you its matric potential. Write in the matric
potential for that cell on your copy now then

The matric potential here is zero, too,
because the solution in the cell is wet.

Now we will fill in values based on information given with the problem.

on a humid morning, because the cells
would have had plenty of time for the
water to move if there was any difference
in water potential.

Are we finished?
Well, not quite. We should go through the final answer and make sure that
the proposed numbers are sensible, likely ones. So here we go.
Normal cells have water potentials that are between about
-1 and -15 bars. Our value looks reasonable.
Next check the pressure potential: Typically it should be positive
for live cells and negative for xylem. So our answers look good.

If transpiration is taking place, there must be water flow from the xylem to
the mesophyll cell. This means the mesophyll cell has a lower water
potential than the xylem. Typically the differences are just a couple of

Are the values reasonable?
It is reasonable for a transpiring mesophyll cell to have a lower water
potential than the adjacent xylem.
A wilting cell always has 0 turgor (pressure potential), and xylem has
a negative pressure potential (sap under tension) during transpiration.
Xylem sap usually has very low levels of solutes, so it has
a solute potential of zero.

Here you have a view of two adjacent root cells and the soil next to one of them.
As usual, your job is to fill in the missing values for the water potential factors.
Strategy: First fill in what you know because of the cell type or soil.
Then values based on other information. Lastly, the arithmetic.

Problem #4 - b
Soil has different water relations properties than cells do. Because it is open to
the air, the water is just like that sitting on the lab bench. This tells you its
pressure potential, so write the pressure potential for the soil on your copy now.
Because we use open water as our reference (= zero pressure),
water in soil would have the same pressure potential (zero).
The water solution between the particles of most soil is typically quite
dilute, with very low concentrations of minerals. This tells you what the
solute potential is for the soil water. Fill the

If the cells both at equilibrium with the soil, they must also be at

Problem #9 - a
We’re up in the top of the tree now. With the same xylem sap as in the
previous problem. The soil has now dried substantially.

Now use the information given to figure out
more. The xylem (right here) is the same as in
the problem above (on left), so its solute
potential will be the same. Put the value in now.
Same plant and soil as in previous problem.
The soil is at -15 bars, the whole plant is at
equilibrium with the soil (night), and the leaf
is wilting.
Almost done.

Problem #9 - b
Continue using the information given to figure out more. The equilibrium
between the cells and the soil is next. Put values for cell water potentials in now.
Use the “wilting” information to determine the leaf cell pressure potential.
Fill in the value now.
Wilting tissue always has a pressure potential of zero.
Now do the arithmetic, one cell at a time.

Does it make sense?
The wilting live cell has zero pressure potential, and the xylem has a negative
pressure potential. Everything looks OK there.
Cells in equilibrium have the same water potential. The matric potential is
zero. Looks OK here.
The low solute potential in the xylem is believable because the plant
is growing in very saline soil.

Everything looks fine. You’re done!
You can go back to review any thing and
any time you wish.
