Scientists refer to the water potential of a plant in describing how water moves through a plant.Which of the following statements about the water potential is false?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Water moves through a plant when the water potential of the entire system is either greater than or less than zero, not when it is equal to zero. In other words, water moves from areas of high water potential to areas of lower water potential. The water potential is affected by solute concentration, pressure, and matric potentials, which can cause water to move into or out of plant cells.
