Sieve plates are pores in the plant cell walls that facilitate transport of materials between two sieve tubes.
from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_tube_element
Pits are small openings in the wall. Perforation plates are larger openings. A sieve plate looks similar to a sieve that is used in the kitchen. They all allow things to move across cell walls.
In plant anatomy, sieve tube elements, are a specialized type of elongated cell in the phloem tissue of flowering plants. The ends of these cells connect with other sieve tube members, making up the sieve tube, whose main function is transport of carbohydrates in the plant.
"Nectar in a Sieve" was written by Kamala Markandaya and first published in 1954.
The holes in the sieve plates of the phloem allow for the movement of sugars, nutrients, and other organic compounds from cell to cell. These pores facilitate the flow of materials through the phloem tissue, enabling the distribution of resources throughout the plant.
1. the sieve tube members form the tubing column through which the food passes 2.the sieve plate has got pits that allow the passage of materials through it from cell to cell Find me at jamesgeotham@yahoo.com
the sieve plate is a filter for the water that enters the "Water Vascular System" in Echinoderms.
by flowing along with water through perforations in the sieve plate
Cells containing sieve plates are called sieve tube members, a component of the phloem, which carries sugars produced in the leaves to various parts of the plant. They are characteristic of angiosperms (flowering plants) while gymnosperms (cone-bearing plants) have only sieve cells. Sieve cells and sieve tube members are collectively referred to as sieve elements.

The presence of sieve plates in phloem tubes allows for bidirectional flow, which contradicts the unidirectional flow proposed by the pressure flow model. The sieve plates also enable some sieve elements to be blocked while others remain functional, challenging the notion of a continuous flow in the phloem.
The sieve tube elements are specialized elongated cells in the phloem that connect end to end forming a tube. The main function of this tube is to transport nutrition in the form of carbohydrates. Sieve cells have no nucleus, ribosomes and cytoplasm, meanin they cannot carry out primary metabolic activities. The companion cells, which are closely associated with the sieve tube elements, carry out the their metabolic functions.
it is the plate under the plate (kea nga UNDER plate!!!) hahaha
A grid is sometimes called a sieve because it can be used to strain or separate different components of a mixture, similar to how a sieve is used to separate solids from liquids or smaller particles from larger ones. The grid's structure allows smaller components to pass through while retaining larger ones, mimicking the function of a sieve.
Companion cells are typically elongated and have a dense cytoplasm. They are closely associated with sieve elements in the phloem and play a crucial role in supporting the function of these sieve elements by providing them with nutrients and energy.
