Vedclass · Answer

(A) The $DPD$ (Diffusion Pressure Deficit) or $SP$ (Suction Pressure) of a cell is calculated as $DPD = OP - TP$.For cell $A$: $DPD = 5 - 4 = 1 	ext{ atm}$.For the surrounding cells: $DPD = 3 - 1 = 2 	ext{ atm}$.Water always moves from a region of lower $DPD$ to a region of higher $DPD$.Since the $DPD$ of cell $A$ $(1 	ext{ atm})$ is lower than the $DPD$ of the surrounding cells $(2 	ext{ atm})$,water will move from cell $A$ to the surrounding cells.

If cell $A$ with $OP = 5$ and $TP = 4$ is surrounded by cells with $OP = 3$ and $TP = 1$,what will be the direction of water movement?
