Water movement in plants is important in water transport from the roots into the shoots and leaves
effects photosynthesis
-
higher solute concentration and a lower water potential as compared to the other solution;
cell will fill with water, become larger
-
interactions between selectively permeable membranes, water, and solutes are important in cellular and organismal functions.
Homeostasis and similar processes
-
How could you determine which solution is isotonic to the cells?
Equal amounts of the solution in and outside of the cell
-
hypotonic solution has a lower solute concentration and a higher water potential than the solution on the other side
cell will shrink, water moves out
-
Isotonic solutions have equal water potentials
still movement, never stops moving, cycle

The steps of the scientific method will be examined in detail later, but one of the most important aspects of this method is the testing of hypotheses by means of repeatable experiments.
Determining if your hypothesis is correct or if you need to alter it and retest your hypothesis.
