Which part of a plant grows downwards and draws food from the soil?
Phloem
Translocation and transpiration?
There is a direct relationship between translocation and transpiration. Translocation refers to movement of sugars which are dissolved in the phloem while transpiration refers to the process through which water is moved from the roots to the stomata through the xylem.
What carries nutrients throughout plants?
There is a special tissue inside a plant's stem called xylem that consists of cells that are essentially tiny straws that pull water from the plant's roots up to the leaves. It is mostly dead tissue at maturity. Then there is phloem, which carries sugars created by photosynthesis from the leaves down to the roots. It is alive.
How does water travel witin a plant?
Assuming you mean vascular plants the transportation system here are the vascular tissues. The xylem moves water from the roots to the leaves. The phloem moves sugars, carbohydrates, from the leaves to everywhere in the plant needing these sugars.
The driving force for the movement of materials in the phloem of plants is?
Phloem ~ Pressure Flow Theory The phloem tissue moves products of photosynthesis by active transport. The flow of materials in phloem is an active process that requires energy. The mechanism of flow is driven by an osmotic pressure gradient, generated by difference in sugar and water concentrations. Just remember photosynthesis= water + sugar water= osmosis sugar=gradient
What are tubes that carry fluids from the roots up to leaves of vascular plants?
xylem and phloem
What is the purpose of xylem phloem in plants?
For the transportation of water and glucose around the plant.
What are the two different types of vascular tissue?
Phloem and xylem are the two main types of vascular tissue found in plants. Xylem is the tissue that mainly carries water, and a few minerals, in the system. Phloem is the tissue that carries photosynthetic materials through the plant.
Differences between plant xylem and phloem and fruit xylem and phloem?
Phloem transports food and xylem transports water and minerals:)
Are auxins transported in xylem or phloem?
Auxins are transported in the phloem, not the xylem.
What are the two vascular tissues found in the root and stem systems?
Xylem and Phloem Xylem-transports water from the roots Phloem-transports food from the process of photosynthesis through other parts of the plant
Are xylem and phloem tissues?
yes, xylem and phloem are tissues in the vascular system
What fibers surround the xylem and phloem tissues?
The xylem and the phloem tissues are found in plants. Bast fibers surround the xylem and the phloem tissues in plants.
What brings food and water to your cells?
.food is carried by phloem and water is carried by xylem.
What is the Xylem of a root?
the xylem is in the roots and the phloem is in the stem actually, their is xylem and phloem in the roots. there is a large central core of xylem often in the shape of an x. and the phloem is found in between the arms of the x shaped xylem.
What is the diffference between xylem and phloem?
Xylem contains Vessels, trachieds and xylem parenchyma Phloem consists of sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma
What fibers surrounds the xylem and phloem?
The xylem and the phloem tissues are found in plants. Bast fibers surround the xylem and the phloem tissues in plants.
