NOTES FROM MR.ANDERSON’S WATER POTENTIAL VIDEO (SAVES TIME AND EFFORT!) Water potential is the potential energy of water per unit area compared to pure water. Which allows you to figure out where water’s going to flow due to osmosis‚ gravity‚ pressure and even surface tension. It also allows you to figure out if water will flow in the first place and if it will flow into the cell or not. Water Potential (symbol psi) = Solute Potential (symbol psi s) + Pressure Potential (symbol psi p) Solute

it was not until my first test in AP Biology‚ that I realized I actually had to go the extra mile and put forth maximum effort into studying and reviewing.

Although she attempted to make my life as difficult as possible‚ she made me fall in love with the material and gain much more appreciation for the study of biology. AP Biology then became the class I was most
