When crop plants are irrigated with water that has a low salt concentration, the salt concentration in the soil rises. Why could this rise in salt concentration eventually lead to the crop being killed?
- Awater potential in roots decreases; direction of water movement out of the roots
- Bwater potential in roots increases; direction of water movement into the roots
- Cwater potential in soil decreases; direction of water movement out of the roots
- Dwater potential in soil increases; direction of water movement into the roots
