How is food transported in plants?
What are the components of the transport system in highly organised plants?
Name the conducting tissue of plants which is made of sieve tubes alongwith companion cells.
Name the conducting tissue in plants which is made of living cells
The phloem tissue in plants is responsible for the transport of:
In autotrophs, water is transported through:
The transport system in plants consists of two kinds of tissues X and Y. The tissue X is made up of living cells and consists of two components A and B. The component A has tiny pores in its end walls and contains only cytoplasm but no nucleus. On the other hand, component B has cytoplasm as well as nucleus. The tissue Y is made up of dead cells and consists of two components C and D. The component C has open ends whereas component D does not have open ends. In flowering plants, either only C or both C and D transport water but D is the only water conducting tissue in non-flowering plants.
(a) What is (i) tissue X (ii) component A, and (iii) component B?
(b) What is (i) tissue Y (ii) component C, and (iii) component D?
Water and dissolved minerals get into the root hair of a plant by a process called A and enter the conducting tissue B. The process C helps the water and dissolved minerals to move up through tissue B in roots and stem, and reach the leaves of a plant. In the leaves, food is made by a process D. This food is then transported to all the parts of a plant through tissue E. The process of distributing food made in the leaves to all the parts of the plants is called F.
(a) What are (i) A (ii) B (iii) C (iv) D (v) E, and (vi) F?
(b) Which tissue is made up of living cells: B or E?
(c) Which tissue, B or E, contains sieve tubes?
(d) Which tissue, B or E, contains tracheids?
The movement of food in phloem is called ____________.
Chief vascular element concerned with transport of food in plant.
