What carries nutrients throughout plants?
There is a special tissue inside a plant's stem called xylem that consists of cells that are essentially tiny straws that pull water from the plant's roots up to the leaves. It is mostly dead tissue at maturity. Then there is phloem, which carries sugars created by photosynthesis from the leaves down to the roots. It is alive.
Which part of a plant grows downwards and draws food from the soil?
Phloem
How does water travel witin a plant?
Assuming you mean vascular plants the transportation system here are the vascular tissues. The xylem moves water from the roots to the leaves. The phloem moves sugars, carbohydrates, from the leaves to everywhere in the plant needing these sugars.
Translocation and transpiration?
There is a direct relationship between translocation and transpiration. Translocation refers to movement of sugars which are dissolved in the phloem while transpiration refers to the process through which water is moved from the roots to the stomata through the xylem.
The driving force for the movement of materials in the phloem of plants is?
Phloem ~ Pressure Flow Theory The phloem tissue moves products of photosynthesis by active transport. The flow of materials in phloem is an active process that requires energy. The mechanism of flow is driven by an osmotic pressure gradient, generated by difference in sugar and water concentrations. Just remember photosynthesis= water + sugar water= osmosis sugar=gradient
What are tubes that carry fluids from the roots up to leaves of vascular plants?
xylem and phloem
Are xylem and phloem tissues?
yes, xylem and phloem are tissues in the vascular system
What brings food and water to your cells?
.food is carried by phloem and water is carried by xylem.
What are the two different types of vascular tissue?
Phloem and xylem are the two main types of vascular tissue found in plants. Xylem is the tissue that mainly carries water, and a few minerals, in the system. Phloem is the tissue that carries photosynthetic materials through the plant.
What what the jods of the phloem and xylem?
The xylem and the phloem are known as the transportation system in vascular plants. The xylem transports water and nutrients while the phloem transports sugars.
What is the diffference between xylem and phloem?
Xylem contains Vessels, trachieds and xylem parenchyma Phloem consists of sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma
Function of xylem and phloem?
the xylem transports water and the phloem transports organic substances.
What is the tissue that makes xylem and phloem?
The vascular cambium tissue makes xylem and phloem.
Is xylem and phloem an non - vascular plant?
No. Xylem and phloem are belonging to vascular plants only. Bryophytae are not vascular, and do not have these.
Are the Xylem and phloem grouped together in the cambium?
No, the xylem and phloem are not grouped together in the cambium. The cambium is a layer of cells in between the xylem and phloem that is responsible for secondary growth in plants. It gives rise to new xylem and phloem cells as the plant grows.
Do Vascular plants have phloem?
Phloem as well as xylem
Do Woody stems have both xylem and phloem tissues.?
Xylem and phloem are the two types of transport tissue found in vascular plants. Woody stems contain both xylem and phloem.
