Today’s postal service is more efficient than ever. Mail that once took months to move by horse and foot now moves around the country in days or hours by truck, train, and plane. If your letter or package is urgent, the U.S. Postal Service offers Priority Mail and Express Mail services. Priority Mail is guaranteed to go anywhere in the United States in two days or less. Express Mail will get your package there overnight.

The pressure-flow model, first proposed by Ernst Münch, Phloem loading at the source and phloem unloading at the sink establish the pressure gradient.

a.) In source tissues, an accumulation of sugars in the sieve elements generates a lower or negative solute potential (ψs).

 b.) source tissue, causes a steep drop in the water potential (ψ), due to water potential gradient, water enters the sieve elements and causes turgor pressure (ψp ) decrease.

c.) In sink tissues, phloem unloading leads to a lower sugar concentration in the sieve elements, generating a higher or less negative solute potential.

d.) As the water potential of the phloem rises above that of the xylem, water tends to leave the phloem in response to the water potential gradient, causing a decrease in turgor pressure in the sieve elements of the sink.

Which of the following statements of sink and source tissue is FALSE?
