     Study the following table and identify the correct sequence of cells which shows the path of water movement between them.
    Cell Osmotic Potential (MPa) Pressure Potential (MPa)
    A - 0.95 0.40
    B - 0.75 0.40
    C - 085 0.25
    D - 0.65 0.25
     

    A)  \[D\to B\to C\to A\]

    B)  \[B\to C\to D\to A\]

    C)  \[C\to B\to A\to D\]

    D)  \[B\to D\to A\to C\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Water Potential = Osmotic Potential + Pressure Potential \[\Psi ={{\Psi }_{o}}+{{\Psi }_{p}}\] \[\therefore {{\Psi }_{A}}=-0.95-0.4=-0.55MPa\]                 \[{{\Psi }_{B}}=-0.75-0.40=-0.35MPa\]                 \[{{\Psi }_{C}}=-0.85-0.25=-0.60MPa\]                 \[{{\Psi }_{D}}=-0.65-0.25=-0.40MPa\] The correct sequence of cells, which shows the path of water movement between them is \[B\to D\to A\to C\]
