The xylem tubes, tubes that suck up water and minerals in a plant, in the celery plant suck up the food coloring which to the tubes, is water. The tubes then just spread the water/food coloring to other parts of the celery.
Yes colored water can change the color of celery, because celery has xylem tubes witch transports the water throughout the entire plant, therefore changing the celery's color
Yes a celery stalk is absorbent becase of the Vessel tissue, Xylem, and the Phloem which are the parts of the stem of the celery stalk where the tubes that carry the water and minirals.
phloem and xylem.(water carrying tube and food carrying tube)
According to research and data, water transports into a celery stick by moving through it's veins and going up to the leaves. Imporoved answer: the celery absorbs the water through the xylem tubes, this tubes carry the water all the way up to the leaves.
The stringy cells are the xylem of the plant (tubes that the plant brings water through)
You can see a celery's vascular tubes.
it is the xylem tubes
it has a larger surface area the celery stalks with out leaves & surface area is an enzyme that speeds up the transpiration in the Xylem tubes
the celery take in the water
Stem
The reason if you do that is because, flowers have itty bitty tubes in their stems that suck all the nutrients out of the ground helping it grow, if the water is is colored then the flower will suck up the colored water feed it the water then the flower will be that color. If I were I would test it on celery first to see if it works. The reason why I'm telling you to test it first on celery is because thy also have itty bitty tubes! from, ilovejonasbrothers
