What organ secrets sucrose?
The organ responsible for secreting sucrose is the plant's leaves, specifically through the process of photosynthesis. During this process, plants convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose, which can then be converted into sucrose for transport. Sucrose is primarily transported through the phloem, the vascular tissue responsible for distributing nutrients throughout the plant.
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
How is water transported to the plants?
They are transported via the xylem tubes
What is the difference between water and water in plants?
sucrose contains sugars
What stops plants from flowering?
Lack of water, too much fertilizer, and too cold of temperatures can affect flowering of plants. Insufficient lighting would also stop flowering.
What does phloem conduct?
Phloem conducts organic nutrients, such as sugars and amino acids, produced during photosynthesis in plants. These nutrients are transported from the leaves, where they are produced, to other parts of the plant for growth and energy.
What is the difference between sucrose and water in plants?
Sucrose is a type of sugar synthesized by plants during photosynthesis and serves as a source of energy for the plant. Water, on the other hand, is essential for various physiological processes in plants such as nutrient uptake, photosynthesis, and structural support. Additionally, water participates in the transport of nutrients and sugars within the plant.
Do flowering plants have roots?
All flowering plants have leaves, as well as most non-flowering plants (ferns, gymnosperms etc.).
How are water and food transported in plants?
xylem and phloem
Does xylem carry sucrose?
Yes, xylem vessels carry water and other minerals from the root to the leaves. The movement of the water through the xylem vessels occur because of three processes: capillarity, transpiration pull and root pressure.
Is a water fern a non-flowering plant?
All water ferns are nonflowring plants
Do flowering plants transport substances through tissue?
Flowering plants use both xylem and phloem tissues to transport water and food products within the plant
