?
Translocation Happens Where?
In the Phloem Tubes
1 of 10
what are phloem tubes made up of
phloem tubes are made up of columns of elongated cells with holes in the end walls
2 of 10
What is cell sap?
a liquid in plants that stores sugar, salt and amino acids.
3 of 10
What does Bidirectional mean
movement is up and down the plant.
4 of 10
Translocation is
the process by which food produced in photosynthesis is transported from the leaves to the growing regions of plants and storage organs.
5 of 10
How do transpiration and translocation differ?
Unlike water transport (transpiration), translocation is bidirectional (movement is both up and down the plant).
6 of 10
Transpiration
Transpiration transports water and the minerals dissolved in it through the plant. Water moves in one direction only: from the roots to the leaves.
7 of 10
osmosis
movement of water from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution.
8 of 10
Active Transport
movement of ion across the cell membrane from an area of high concentration.
9 of 10
Water and Minerals are carried up in..
