Show transcribed image text A typical plant cell, with internal solute potential of -0.2 MPa and a pressure potential of 0.0 MPa, is dropped into an open coffee cup at sea level. The coffee as a solute potential of -0.1 MPa. Calculate the water potential of the solution and the water potential of the cell, and determine what will happen to the cell. Then circle the answer below. Cell psi_w > Coffee psi_w; turgor pressure decreases in the cell Cell psi_w > Coffee psi_w; turgor pressure decreases in the cell Cell psi_w > Coffee psi_w; turgor pressure increases in the cell Cell psi_w > Coffee psi_w; turgor pressure increases in the cell
