Today in class, I learned about pressure and water potential and how humidity can impact water movement in plants. Learned lots of new formulas including the transpiration rate and the different potentials that occur in the plants. It was very interesting to learn that as tension of water increases, the volume of the stomata decreases. I would think that as one increases, the other will also increase but it was not true. There are so many cool facts about plants and its function and ability to go through the process of photosynthesis. I am glad I learned how water transport works in plants using its stomata and different leaf cross-sections.
