Sucrose is transported from a phloem sieve tube element into an actively dividing shoot tip. Which pair of changes to water potential and to the volume of liquid in the phloem sieve tube element is correct?
- Awater potential becomes less negative; volume of liquid decreases
- Bwater potential becomes less negative; volume of liquid increases
- Cwater potential becomes more negative; volume of liquid decreases
- Dwater potential becomes more negative; volume of liquid increases
