Answer:
But getting to your question, solute potential is a component of water potential. It happens because solute molecules are present. It is always negative since solutes lower the water potential of the system. ... Basically, water potential is the energy of water unit volume relative to pure water that you can reference

Answer:
Solute potential (Ψs) decreases with increasing solute concentration; a decrease in Ψs causes a decrease in the total water potential. The internal water potential of a plant cell is more negative than pure water; this causes water to move from the soil into plant roots via osmosis..
