For a transpiring plant, water moves from soil to roots, then to stems, then to leaves
and then evaporates to the atmosphere. Which of the following is not true about the
water potentials at different soil-plant-atmosphere continuum?
The water potential is the same everywhere in the system because of evaporation.
The water potential of the stem is greater than the water potential of the leaf.
The water potential of the soil is greater than the water potential of the root.
The water potential at the surface of leaf is less than the water potential of stem.
