Compared to plants from other environments, the cells of many desert plants contain high concentrations of solutes. This helps them survive in their arid surroundings because the high solute concentrations create relatively , which help reduce water loss.

Low solute potential

Explanation:

Solute potential is simply defined as a pressure that is implemented to a given solution from preventing the water flowing inward across a distinct semi-permeable membrane . This is also known as osmotic potential.

On the other hand, the water potential can be defined as the potential energy that is attained by water per unit volume.

There is a relationship between the solute potential and the solute concentrations, where the concentration of solute is inversely proportional to the solute potential.

Thus, in the desert areas, some plant cells are comprised of high solute concentration which favors them to survive in the arid climate because they have low solute potential that helps them in reducing the loss of water.

1: most common garden plants prefer loam — soils with a balance of different-sized mineral particles (approximately 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay) with ample organic matter and pore space. however, some plants grow better in sandy soils, while others are well-adapted to clay soils.

2: available water capacity is the maximum amount of plant available water a soil can provide. it is an indicator of a soil's ability to retain water and make it sufficiently available for plant use. available water capacity is the water held in soil between its field capacity and permanent wilting point.

3: it is the same for all living things (plants and animals). it also includes very tiny organisms that our eyes cannot see. they are known as microorganisms, and include viruses, bacteria and fungi.
