What are carrot cells?
The cells in the middle of a carrot (vascular bundle) consist of xylem & phloem. Xylem are responsible for water transportation and phloem transports nutrients. These tissues are primarily made of sclerenchyma cells as well as parenchyma cells.
When a carrot slice is placed in tap water for several hours why does it become very stiff?
When a carrot slice is placed in tap water, it absorbs the water through a process called osmosis. The water moves into the carrot cells, causing them to become turgid and swell, making the carrot slice stiff. This happens because the water pressure inside the cells increases, providing structural support to the carrot slice.
Would a carrot sink in water?
the more salt you add the more difficult it would be for the plant to get water.
What percent of peoples body that is made of water?
80%
Where is the xylem in a carrot?
In a carrot, the xylem is located in the vascular bundle within the carrot's root. The xylem tissue is responsible for transporting water and nutrients from the carrot's roots to the rest of the plant.
How much percentag of water in carrots?
A carrot is 90% water.
Would you have carrot flavored water if you put a carrot in water?
not really. to get carrot flavored water, you have to boil the water and then put pieces of carrots in.
Why does a carrot float in salt water but sink in fresh water?
A carrot will float in salt water because salt water is denser than the carrot. This creates buoyant force that allows the carrot to float. In fresh water, the carrot is denser than the water, causing it to sink.
Why does a carrot placed in water gain in size?
When a carrot is placed in water, it absorbs water through a process called osmosis. The carrot cells take in water, causing them to swell and expand, which makes the carrot appear larger. This is because the water moves from an area of high concentration (the water outside the carrot) to an area of low concentration (inside the carrot).
Are jellyfish made mostly out of water?
Yes, jelly fish are made out of 95 percent water and5 percent glactouis
Is the bladder 96 percent water?

80 percent to 90 percent of pumpkins are made of what?
Water
What is furnish made of?
It is 99 percent water and 1 percent fiber
How are carrot seeds made?
Carrot seeds are not manufactured. All seeds are made by the plants themselves.
Why does it happen when a carrot is soaked in saltwater?
When a carrot is soaked in saltwater, it undergoes osmosis, where water moves out of the carrot cells into the saltwater, which has a higher concentration of solutes. This causes the carrot to lose water, leading to wilting and a decrease in turgor pressure. The result is a firmer texture and a loss of crispness in the carrot. Conversely, if the carrot were soaked in fresh water, it would absorb water and become more turgid.
Explain why a carrot feels spongy after being soaked in salt water?
Water moves out of the carrot's cells and into the salt water due the difference in concentration of NaCl. This might account for the spongy-ness of the carrot
What percent of the pumkin is made of water?
92 % of a pumpkin is water.
