Water moves from high to low concentration across the membrane (down). This is called osmosis.

How does xylem differ from phlegm?
Xylem is a one way flow
The structure and function of xylem and phloem?
Xylem caries water and disolved nutrients from the roots throughout the plant. Phloem carries/ distributes the products of photosynthesis (mainly from the leaves) to the rest of the plants. A good way to remember their function is: Xylem is the upward conduction of water while phloem is the upward and downward conduction of food and minerals.
Describe how water and other molecules are transported throughout the plant?
Each water molecule pulls on other water molecules as water is transpired from the leaves of the plant. This allows free movement of water throughout the plant.
How is phloem transport different from xylem transport?
Phloem has a two-way flow
What do vascular tissues provide for plants?
Vascular Tissues are the Xylem and Phloem. These are the transport system of plants in other words, the circulatory system. The Xylem is responsible for the traveling of liquids to its other organs while the Phloem absorbs food particles.
How do plants carry water?
Though there are many methods, the major way in which plants move water against gravity towards the leaves is transpiration. it occurs in the following steps.The water evaporates from the stomata in the leaves.This creates a lower water potential in the leaves than the xylem ( vessel for transportation of water in the stem).Water therefore moves from the xylem to the leaves.The xylem in turn withdraws water from the roots.
How does water from the ground get all the way to the leaf?
Xylem moves the water and other materials up.
How does the structure of xylem and phloem vessels differs microscopically?
differ in such a way that xylem transport water while phloem transport food and nutrients
Which way does water move once it passe through the zone of saturation?
Down
How does water from the ground get all the way up to the leaf?
Xylem moves the water and other materials up.
Which way does water move as it passes through the zone of aeration?
sideways
How does xylem differ from phlegm?
Xylem is a one way flow
How is the xylem different from pholem?
Xylem is a one way flow
What is the system that transports water from the roots to other parts of the plants?
The stem carries water from the roots to the rest of the plant. It has three parts, xylem, phloem, and cambium. The xylem carries sugars up, the phloem can go either way, and cambium is where sugars are made. Hope this helps! :D
Which way does a xylem go up a vasscular tissue?
Xylem transports water and minerals up the stem of the plant for maintenance. Phloem is bidirectional and transports the glucose derived from photosynthesis.
What are vascular tissues used for?
In botany, vascular tissues include xylem and phloem. Xylem is the type of vascular tissue that moves water and dissolved nutrients from the roots to the leaves. The xylem are one-way roads, however. No particles can move down the tree through the xylem. Phloem are the tubes in plants responsible for transporting sugars from the leaves to the roots and vice-versa. These are the tubes that are like normal roads. The sugars in the phloem are able go from the roots to the leaves and from the leaves to the roots. In subjects other than botany, I have no idea what vascular tissue is used for. Hopefully the information I gave you is what you needed.
How do cut flowers take in water?
A flower takes in water through the xylem, which is the outer layer of the stem.Hope this answer helped you in any way.
