Why does a plant's transport of sugar differ from it's transport of water?
Water is transported in Xylem vessels and sugar is transported in the phloem
The vascular tissues that transport water minerals food and nutrients are?
Xylem transports water up to the leaves.Water:Is absorbed from the soil through root hair cellsIs transported through the xylem vessels up the stem to the leaves.Evaporates from the leaves (transpiration)But the phloem transports nutrients to the leaves.
What group of plants require water for sexual reproduction to occur?
Strictly speaking all plants, for without water plants die! However algae, bryophytes (mosses and liverworts) and pteridophytes (ferns) all have motile male gametes which require free water to swim through to the female gamete.
How is food transported throughout a plant?
If by "food" you mean the product of photosynthesis, this is transported through the plant (from the leaves and green parts) by the Phloem vessels - this is generally in a downward direction. If by "food" you mean nutrients that are absorbed from the soil, these are absorbed in solution by the roots and then transported in an upward direction throughout the plant by the Xylem vessels
What tissue in vascular plants transports water through the plant?
Xylem transports water up to the leaves.Water:Is absorbed from the soil through root hair cellsIs transported through the xylem vessels up the stem to the leaves.Evaporates from the leaves (transpiration)But the phloem transports nutrients to the leaves.
What method is used by bryophytes to absorb water and nutrients What is it called?
diffusion
What is the tissue that carries nutrients thoughout a plant?
Nutrients as in sugars (products of photosynthesis) such as Sucrose, are transported in the Phloem, and water is transported in the Xylem vessels
What is an apoplast?
An apoplast is a space outside of a plant's plasma membrane through which water and soluble nutrients are transported across a tissue or organ.
What structures carries nutrients through a plant?
Most nutrients are transported through the phloem cells in a plant, while water (and some root products) are carried by the separate cell structures known as the xylem.
Why does a plant's transport of sugar differ from it's transport of water?
Water is transported in Xylem vessels and sugar is transported in the phloem
The vascular tissues that transport water minerals food and nutrients are?
Xylem transports water up to the leaves.Water:Is absorbed from the soil through root hair cellsIs transported through the xylem vessels up the stem to the leaves.Evaporates from the leaves (transpiration)But the phloem transports nutrients to the leaves.
Which is transported in the xylem of plant?
The Xylem of a plant transports water and some nutrients.
Do Bryophytes conduct water minerals and sugars through roots and leaves?
false, PLATO
What can be transported through a cell?
water
Oxygen and nutrients are transported around an animal's body by the system?
food
What is the vasculuar tissue that transports water and minerals through a plant?
Xylem transports water up to the leaves.Water:Is absorbed from the soil through root hair cellsIs transported through the xylem vessels up the stem to the leaves.Evaporates from the leaves (transpiration)But the phloem transports nutrients to the leaves.
