Water Uptake and transport (Fig. 32.1)
= water is essential because: transport solute, cool the body, photosynthesis and Turgor pressure
Osmosis- movement of H2) through a semi-impermeable membrane
Osmotic potential ( o)-depend on dissolve solute: Hi concentration means more negative o.
Isoosmotic-two solution with same o; Hypoosmotic- solution that has a less negative o(more +)
Turgor Pressure -hydraulic

= 3 cell at micropyle-1 egg/2 synergid cells; 3 at top-called antipodal; 2 center-produce endosperm.
The anther's (microsporangia) microsporocyte produce microspores by meiosis-divide once then release.

= In gymnosperm/angiosperm the sperm travels in pollen grains.
2 types; self-pollination (legumes, peas) and cross- pollination (wind, insect, animals and water).
