Water molecules always move from a region of high water potential (less negative) to an area of lower water potential (more negative). This is because having the solutes lowers the number of “free” water molecules in the cytoplasm. Therefore, all plant cells always have negative water potential. Solute potential (Ψs) decreases with increasing solute concentration; a decrease in Ψs causes a decrease in the total water potential. The internal water potential of a plant cell is more negative than pure water; this causes water to move from the soil into plant roots via osmosis.
