This is a serious problem for agriculture.
Explanation:
- The wheat plants cannot be irrigated with seawater.
- This is because the solute concentration of the salt in seawater is much higher in the seawater than in the roots of the plants.
- Thus, if seawater is used to irrigate the plants, then the water outside the roots will be more concentrated than the plants inside.
- This marks the movement of the water from inside of the root cells to outside. This is called hyperosmosis.
