Why must sugar be transported to sink such as growing points and roots?
the layer of cartex (which is in the plant root) can act as a winter storage for starch.
Explain how a root or tuber can serve as both a sugar source and a sugar sink?
A root or a tuber can serve as both a sugar source and a sugar sink during the production. What this means is that when a plant is growing into an adult plant, the root or tuber is used as a sort of fuel source, helping the plant with extra nutrients to ensure growth.
Sugar sink in water?
Yes sugar will sink in water and eventually dissolve.
The root is an example of a photosynthetic sink tissue in plants True or False?
True. The sugars made during photosynthesis in the leaves (sugar source) are transported by the means of the pressure-flow hypothesis to sugar sinks. The roots are a sink since there is a low concentration of sugar and they need more from sugar sources to grow.
Does sugar sink or float?
well, sugar is more dense than water. Therefore, sugar will sink to the bottom until it's dissolved into a substance. (:
Where are sink cells located in a plant?
In the roots.
When was Sink into Me created?
Sink into Me was created in 2008.
How do plants transport sugar from the leaves to the rest of the plant?
Plants transport sugar from the leaves to the rest of the plant through a process called translocation. This process occurs in the phloem, where sugar is actively transported from source tissues (like leaves) to sink tissues (such as roots, fruits, and growing tips) through specialized cells called sieve tubes. The movement of sugar is driven by a pressure gradient created by the loading of sugar at the source and unloading at the sink.
What is a sugar sink?
A sugar sink is an organ in a plant where sugars are concentrated. It depends on whether a plant is active or dormant as to where you are most likely to find a sink at any given time. During dormancy the roots are the sinks and during growth the leaves, stems, and other growing parts are the sinks. In actuality, since during the growth period the sap is always flowing in both directions, the entire plant should be considered a sink. Only one organ is always classed as a sink; that is the fruit. Nutrients flow into the fruit, not out.
When was Roots Bloody Roots created?
Roots Bloody Roots was created in 1996.
Why doesn't the sugar in coke sink?
it dissolves
When was Sink to the Bottom created?
Sink to the Bottom was created in 1997.
