The value for Ψ in root tissue was found to be -3.3 bars. If you take the root tissue and place it in a 0.1 M solution of sucrose at 20°C in an open beaker, what is the Ψ of the solution, and in which direction would the net flow of water be?
  1. -2.4 from inside the root tissue to the outside of the root tissure
  2. -3.3 from outside the root tissue to inside the root tissue
  3. -2.4 from outside the root tissue to inside the root tissue
  4. 2.4 from inside the root tissue to outside the root tissue

How does the second law of thermodynamics apply to living organisms?
  1. All of the reactions in an organism require an input of energy.
  2. Living organisms require a constant input of energy to maintain complex structures and order.
  3. As energy transformations occur, free energy increases and unusable energy decreases.
  4. The potential energy of ATP is converted to kinetic energy, as with muscle contractions.
  5. It does not apply to living organisms; the complexity of organisms contradicts the second law.
