    7.2: Visual Connection Questions
    1.

    Figure 30.7 Which layers of the stem are made of parenchyma cells?

    1. cortex and pith
    2. phloem
    3. sclerenchyma
    4. xylem
    2.

    Figure 30.32 Positive water potential is placed on the left side of the tube by increasing Ψp such that the water level rises on the right side. Could you equalize the water level on each side of the tube by adding solute, and if so, how?

    3.

    Figure 30.34 Which of the following statements is false?

    1. Negative water potential draws water into the root hairs. Cohesion and adhesion draw water up the xylem. Transpiration draws water from the leaf.
    2. Negative water potential draws water into the root hairs. Cohesion and adhesion draw water up the phloem. Transpiration draws water from the leaf.
    3. Water potential decreases from the roots to the top of the plant.
    4. Water enters the plants through root hairs and exits through stoma.
