The greater concentration of water in a system leads to _________(a) increased transpiration(b) increased solute potential(c) hypertonic condition(d) greater kinetic energyI got this question in an internship interview.This is a very interesting question from Plant-Water Relations-1 in portion Transport in Plants of Biology – Class 11

Answer»

Correct answer is (d) greater kinetic energy

For explanation: Increase in concentration of water in a system LEADS to increase in K.E and thereby the water potential of the PLANT. It REDUCES hypertonic solution and aim to achieve isotonic condition. It decreases the solute potential as the water CONTENT increases in comparison to solutes DISSOLVED. Transpiration doesn’t depend on amount of water present in the system.
