Why do upside down plants grow faster?
Just like the tospey turvey! Well, the water and nutrients travel very fast to the plants because the roots are at the top so the dont have to travel very far down.
How do you find the layers of rocks?
flood the land and make the sediment rise to the top of the water
Can a plant grow its roots back?
yes, plants can grow there roots back, but it has to be the full plant. Not a flower, fruit, bud, etc. You have to keep it in a cup or vase filled with water. It may take a while but eventually the roots will start growing back. I am currently helping a plant grow it's roots back. It was dying, so I cut it in half. I put the top in water and after about a week it is growing back and greener than ever. I give it new water ever other day and make sure it doesn't get dusty. Sometimes I have to take the dead plant off of the base so the roots can grow past it. Very fun, you get attached to it.
How can a water lily survive in underwater?
The only part of it underwater are its stem and roots. The leaf stays at the top all the time to get sunlight. The stem is corkscrew shaped, which allows the leaf to go up and down with the water level.
What happens when you put a bag over a plant under the sun light?
Water droplets will form at the top of the bag. The water came from the leaves. When you water a plant, the water goes to the roots, and then the leaves. So the sun evaporated the water from the leaves and the water got stuck on the top of the bag. Transpiration is the process that caused this to happen.
By what three processes does water rise from the roots to the top of a tree?
Water travels from the roots to the top of a tree by the combination of 3 processes. One of these processes is "transpiration" which occurs when water vapor escapes from the stomata, or small openings on the lower surface of leaves. This creates a negative pressure near the top of the trees which results in a sucking action similar to what happens when one inhales through a straw. A second factor is "root pressure" which is the movement of water from the soil into the roots by osmosis. This causes a positive pressure in the roots which helps to "push" water into the plant. The third process is "capillary action" which is the upward movement of water in very, almost microscopically, thin tubes. The structures in plants that transport water are called xylem tubes and they have a very narrow diameter so capillary action will occur in them. These three processes acting together allow water to move against gravity to travel from the roots to the tops of tall trees and plants.
How does water rise to the top of a redwood tree?
adhesion of water to the wood and cohesion of water molecules
What rises when oil and water are mixed together?
The oil will rise to the top and float on the water.
When lemon juice is stirred in water does the lemon juice rise to the top?
No
How are fibrous roots good for plants?
Fibrous roots form a rosette of several roots around the soil and help in the absorption of water and minerals from the top fertile soil.
Is it ok for the water in a swimming to rise to the very top during a rain storm will it cause damage and what should you do?
It is okay. It will not cause damage. You can just open the pool drain and let out some water.
How does the water absorbed by roots reaches the top of the tree?
it ges up xylems which are tubes made of tissue that transport water and dissolved minerals from the roots to other parts of the plant
What do xylem do in plants?
Xylem transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the top of the plant.
How Water can reach the top of the tall tender coconut tree?
the roots suck it and gave it to the stem. stem gave it to top

Why do trees have grain?
trees have grain so that the water from the roots can go up to the top of the tree
