7.
Which statement best describes Transpiration stream?
An epidermal root cell with a long extension that increases surface area for water and mineral ion uptake.
The continuous column of water pulled up the xylem from roots to leaves by transpiration.
Tissue of dead, hollow, lignified vessels that carries water and mineral ions up the plant and gives support.
A part of a plant that releases sucrose or amino acids, e.g. a photosynthesising leaf.
8.
Which statement best describes Xylem?
Tissue of dead, hollow, lignified vessels that carries water and mineral ions up the plant and gives support.
A part of a plant that uses or stores sucrose or amino acids, e.g. roots, fruits, growing buds.
Pores, mostly in the lower epidermis of leaves, whose size is controlled by guard cells.
The loss of water vapour from leaves by evaporation of water at the surfaces of mesophyll cells followed by diffusion through the stomata.
9.
Which statement best describes Transpiration?
The loss of water vapour from leaves by evaporation of water at the surfaces of mesophyll cells followed by diffusion through the stomata.
Tissue of dead, hollow, lignified vessels that carries water and mineral ions up the plant and gives support.
An epidermal root cell with a long extension that increases surface area for water and mineral ion uptake.
The movement of sucrose and amino acids in phloem from sources to sinks.
10.
Which statement best describes Phloem?
