Accepted Answer

Hello everyone and welcome to today's video. So today we have a very short video and it starts with which of the following statements best describes the water potential of a cell When it is placed in a solution with a higher water potential, where how those water behave in terms of water potentials or water is going to flow from a low water potential state to a high water potential states. So when we place these cell in a solution that has a higher water potential, water is going to flow from inside the cell to outside the cell to this high water potential. And by doing so, it is going to decrease the water potential that exists inside of the cell because the cell is losing water because of this, the correct answer choice is going to be answer choice. The water potential of the cell. It is going to decrease as the water flows from the inside of the cell to the outside. Which is what we see here. That is the end of the video. And I really hope this video helped you.
