Endosperm Fluid Composition

Solute Component Concentration
Potassium (K+) 2100 mg/L
Total Sugars (Glucose/Fructose) 5.80 g/100mL

Biological Mechanism: Coconut water is liquid syncytial endosperm. Soil water enters roots via osmometers and is pulled up trunk xylem vessels by tension before dynamic cellularization deposits solid meat along the inner drupe wall.
