Plants aren't very active organisms due to the fact they generally cannot move the way humans and animals can; ie walking, running or flying for some animals. This means plants can meet their oxygen demands by diffusion without requiring that complex gas exchange system.

What is the difference between the plant transport system and the animal transport system?

Plants have a transport system called xylem and phloem, which transport water and nutrients throughout the plant. Animals have a circulatory system, with blood vessels, heart, and blood that transport oxygen, nutrients, and wastes throughout the body. Plants rely on osmotic pressure and transpiration to move fluids, while animals have a pump (heart) to circulate fluids.


What is the final hydrogen acceptor in cellular respiration of most plants and animals?

The final hydrogen acceptor in cellular respiration for most plants and animals is oxygen. Oxygen combines with electrons and protons to form water in the electron transport chain, allowing the production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.


What are the hypothesis for plants?

Plants require sunlight for photosynthesis to produce food. Plants need water for nutrient absorption and transport. Plants rely on soil nutrients, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, for growth and development. Plants release oxygen during photosynthesis as a byproduct.


How can plants survive under water?

Plants that can survive underwater have adaptations such as thin leaves to allow for efficient gas exchange, specialized tissue to transport oxygen and nutrients, and the ability to perform photosynthesis using low light levels. Some plants also have the ability to store oxygen in special structures to help them survive in oxygen-depleted water.


Which plants release oxygen at night?

There are no plants that release oxygen at night. Plants only release oxygen during the day through the process of photosynthesis.

What are the blood cells that transport oxygen?

red blood cells transport oxygen :)


What three nutrients do plants get from the air and water?

Plants obtain carbon dioxide from the air for photosynthesis. They absorb oxygen from the air for respiration and water from the soil for hydration and nutrient transport.


Do animals and plants transport material?

Yes, both animals and plants transport materials within their bodies. In animals, materials are transported through the circulatory system, while in plants, materials are transported through the vascular system (xylem and phloem). These transport systems help distribute nutrients, water, and other essential substances to different parts of the organism.

Xylem and phloem are the main transport tissues in plants.


Are proteins necessary to transport oxygen to body?

A protein (hemoglobin) is required to transport Oxygen around the body.


Why oxygen transport as a liquid?

Oxygen transport as a liquid is not practical due to its low solubility in liquids. Oxygen is primarily transported in the body bound to hemoglobin in red blood cells. This allows for efficient transport of oxygen to tissues and organs.


What does blood transport?

blood transport oxygen around the body


What are the importance of transport in plants and animals?

To sustain life transport of material is necessary for plants and animals.
