Imagine you are studying the turgor pressure at two different ends of a sieve tube. One end of the sieve tube is located within a mature leaf, and the other end is located within the roots

When comparing the turgor pressure within the sieve tube at these two locations, what would you expect to find?
A. The turgor pressure will be the same at the
leaf and root ends.
B. The turgor pressure will be greater at the
root end.
C. The turgor pressure will be greater at the
leaf end.
D. Turgor pressure will not exist at either
location.
