Question

How is the movement of water in terms of DPD?

Answer 1

Movement of water in terms of DPD:

1. Water always goes from a low to a high Diffusion pressure deficit.
2. During the absorption of water by roots, solutes, and water enter through the root hair.
3. The TP of water absorbed by roots increases.
4. The SP or Diffusion pressure deficit decreases as a result.
5. As a result of the concentration gradient, water from the root hair travels to the cortical cells, eventually reaching the xylem.
