The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given data about the cells A, B, C, and D and calculate their respective Diffusion Pressure Deficit (DPD). Then, we will determine the direction of water flow based on the DPD values. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values:** - Cell A: DPD = 5 bars - Cell B: OP = 5 bars, TP = 5 bars - Cell C: OP = 10 bars, TP = 4 bars - Cell D: OP = 8 bars, TP = 3 bars 2. **Calculate DPD for Each Cell:** - **Cell B:** - DPD = OP - TP = 5 - 5 = 0 bars - **Cell C:** - DPD = OP - TP = 10 - 4 = 6 bars - **Cell D:** - DPD = OP - TP = 8 - 3 = 5 bars 3. **Summarize DPD Values:** - Cell A: DPD = 5 bars - Cell B: DPD = 0 bars - Cell C: DPD = 6 bars - Cell D: DPD = 5 bars 4. **Determine the Direction of Water Flow:** - Water moves from areas of lower DPD to areas of higher DPD. - The DPD values are as follows: - Cell B (0 bars) < Cell A (5 bars) = Cell D (5 bars) < Cell C (6 bars) - Therefore, the flow of water will be from Cell B (lowest DPD) to Cell A, Cell D, and Cell C (higher DPD). 5. **Conclusion:** - The flow of water will be from Cell B to Cells A, C, and D. ### Final Answer: The flow of water will be from **B to A, C, and D**. ---
