Document Summary

Understand what effects water potential and how it influences water movement in plants. When 2 regions separated by a membrane are isotonic with each other, water moves across the membrane in equal amounts in both directions. There is no net movement of water into or out of the cell. Be able to explain the different routes water takes from the soil to xylem. Transmembrane route (water movement across plasma membranes) Compare and contrast how water and sugar are moved through a plant. Water moves from high to low water potential across the water potential gradient. Water (needed for photosynthesis and universal solvent) O2 (by-product of photosynthesis and used for cellular respiration) A mixture of organic matter, minerals, gases, liquids, and organisms that support life. Explain how soil properties are important for plant growth and nutrient uptake. Soil provides structural stability for plants and retains and relinquishes water and the nutrients necessary for plant growth.
