If Psih(w)= water potential, Psi(s)= sol...

If `Psih_(w)=` water potential, `Psi_(s)=` solute potential, `Psi_(p)=` pressure potential then select the correct equation showing their inter-relation.

A

`Psi_(w)=Psi_(s)-Psi_(rho)`

B

`Psi_(w)=Psi_(s)+Psi_(rho)`

C

`Psi_(s)=Psi_(w)+Psi_(rho)`

D

`Psi_(w)=Psi_(s)=Psi_(rho)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`psi_(w) = psi_(s) + psi_(p)`
Where `psi_(w) =` water potential, `psi_(s) =` solute potential
and `psi_(p) =` pressure potential.
