A researcher observes that a particular plant cell placed in a solution exhibits incipient plasmolysis. If the solute potential of the cell is -1.2 MPa, what is the MOST likely water potential of the surrounding solution?

    Choose the correct option in accordance to the statements given above

I.    The positive hydrostatic pressure is also called as turgor pressure

II.    Wall pressure is exerted to prevent any increase in protoplasm size

Imagine a U-shaped tube with a selectively permeable membrane separating two solutions. Side A contains a 0.2M sucrose solution, and Side B contains a 0.1M NaCl solution. Initially, the levels are equal. Considering the dissociation of NaCl and the non-penetrating nature of sucrose and NaCl, which side will have a higher level at equilibrium?
