Following are certain statements regarding the plant cell water potential (\(\psi \)):

A. The major factors influencing the water potential in plants are potentials of solutes (\(\psi \)s), pressure (\(\psi \)p) and gravity (\(\psi \)g).

B. The solute potential (\(\psi \)s) increases the free energy of water by diluting the water. 

C. Positive pressures raise the water potential while negative pressures reduce it.

D. The gravitational potential depends on the height of the water above the reference-state of water, the density of water and the acceleration due to gravity.
