This is kinda hard
The water potential of the potato cells would decrease because as water leaves the cells through osmosis to the drier environment, it causes the concentration of solutes inside the cells to increase, lowering the water potential.
Dividing the potato tuber into six discs allows for multiple replicates to be tested for each water potential solution, increasing the reliability of the results. It also ensures that any variations in the samples can be accounted for, providing a more accurate representation of the water potential of the potato tuber cells.
Yes, because the distilled water has higher water potential as compared the the strip potato, so water will enter the potato by osmosis, through a partially permeable membrane, causing it to increase in size (:
water
A potato in salt water is hypotonic. This is because the salt water has a higher concentration of solutes compared to the potato cells, causing water to move out of the potato cells, leading to the cell shrinking.
The water potential of the potato cells would decrease because as water leaves the cells through osmosis to the drier environment, it causes the concentration of solutes inside the cells to increase, lowering the water potential.
This depends on the concentration of the salt solution. If the water potential of the salt solution is greater (less concentrated) than the cell sap of the potato cells, water would move into the potato cells, increasing the size of the potato strip. If the water potential of the salt solution is lower (more concentrated) than the cell sap of the potato cells, water would move out of the potato cells in the salt solution, decreasing the size of the potato strip.

Put it In water for a taste of the sea
decreases it - no water then no water potential.

water
Beacause when you put the slice of potato in water osmosis takes place since concentration of water is lower then the concentration of the potato and water moves from ow concentration to high concentration so the water will move into the potato and the potato will become ridgid, But if you put salty water the salty water has a higher concentration then the potato so water will move out of the potato and the potato becomes soft.

energy
Distilled water is hypotonic to potato.
A hydropower reservoir is an example of gravitational potential energy, where the stored water has the potential to produce electricity when it flows downhill through a turbine.
