Movement into and out of cells — practice question

What changes happen to the water potential and to the volume of solution in the phloem sieve tube when sucrose is transferred from a photosynthesising leaf into the phloem sieve tube?

  • Awater potential becomes higher; volume of solution decreases
  • Bwater potential becomes higher; volume of solution increases
  • Cwater potential becomes lower; volume of solution decreases
  • Dwater potential becomes lower; volume of solution increases
