This document discusses the mechanism and pathway of water transport across roots and plants. It explains that water is absorbed through root hairs into epidermal cells using osmosis due to water potential gradients. The water then moves inward through cortex, endodermal, and pericycle cells before entering xylem vessels. The xylem transports water upward through the stem and leaves, where it eventually transpires out of stomata into the air. Endodermal cells play an important role in filtering substances and regulating water movement into vascular tissues.

Transport in flowering plants (self created)
This document outlines the key objectives and concepts about xylem and water transport in plants. The objectives are to learn about the structure and function of xylem, the mechanisms of water transport from roots to leaves, and the definition and factors affecting the rate of transpiration. The document explains that vascular bundles contain xylem and phloem tissues for transport throughout the plant. Xylem consists of tubes that transport water and minerals via root pressure, capillary action, and transpiration pull, which is driven by water loss from leaves. The rate of transpiration is affected by light, temperature, wind, and humidity.
The Journey of water in a Plant
Water enters the soil through rain and is absorbed by the tiny root hairs of plants. The root hairs pull the water from the soil and it moves up through the root. Inside the root are veins called xylem that carry the water up the stem of the plant. Transpiration is the process where water evaporates from the leaves and draws more water up from the roots, transporting nutrients throughout the plant. The xylem moves water and minerals up the plant while the phloem transports sugars made in photosynthesis down the plant.
Transport in plant slides
The document discusses the transport structures and processes in plants. It describes how xylem transports water and minerals upwards from the roots to the leaves, driven by transpiration pull. Phloem transports food substances manufactured in the leaves to all parts of the plant through sieve tubes and companion cells. Experiments using aphids, ringing, and radioisotopes demonstrate phloem transport.
9.2 transport in the phloem of plants
1. Plants transport organic compounds like sucrose from sources of production, like leaves, to sinks of storage or use, like roots and fruits.
2. Sucrose is actively loaded into phloem sieve tubes in the leaves through the use of ATP. This increases the solute concentration in the phloem.
3. Water then enters the phloem by osmosis from the xylem, raising the hydrostatic pressure. This pressure drives the bulk flow of phloem sap toward areas of lower pressure and concentration in the sinks.
Transport in plants
There are two transport systems in plants - xylem and phloem. Xylem transports water and minerals from the roots throughout the plant. Phloem transports sugars and amino acids made in the leaves throughout the plant. Xylem vessels are long, hollow tubes reinforced with lignin that carry water upwards. Phloem vessels are living cells that transport sucrose and amino acids from where they are made to where they are used or stored. Transpiration is the loss of water vapor through stomata in the leaves, and can be measured using a potometer. The rate of transpiration is affected by environmental conditions like temperature, wind, humidity, and light levels.

It describes that xylem transports water and minerals up the plant and provides mechanical support, while phloem transports sugars and amino acids. Xylem cells are dead and hollow, strengthened by lignin, whereas phloem is made of living sieve tube cells that transport sugars with help from companion cells. Water moves into roots by osmosis and up the plant via root pressure, capillary action and transpiration pull through the xylem. The rate of transpiration is affected by temperature, humidity, light, wind and carbon dioxide levels.

9.2 transport in angiospermophytes
The root system provides a large surface area for uptake of water and minerals through branching and root hairs. Minerals move into the root through diffusion, fungal hyphae, or mass flow with water and are absorbed into roots by active transport. Terrestrial plants support themselves with thickened cell walls, turgor pressure, and lignified xylem. Transpiration is the loss of water vapor from leaves and stems, which establishes a transpiration stream that transports water and minerals through the xylem.
Chapter 10
The document discusses the transport systems in plants, explaining that multicellular plants require oxygen, carbon dioxide, water, and nutrients delivered through their vascular tissues. It focuses on the transport of water, describing how water moves from the soil through the roots and xylem tissue up to the leaves, where it is released through transpiration. The transport of water establishes pressure gradients and flow that also facilitates the transport of minerals throughout the plant.
Water movement through a plant
The document summarizes water transport through plants. It describes how water is absorbed through root hairs into the xylem and transported upwards. Water moves from root hair cells to the cortex and endodermis by osmosis. In the stem, water is transported through xylem vessels by tension from the leaves. Water then diffuses out of xylem cells in the leaves down a concentration gradient to be used in photosynthesis.
Transport in plants
Plants have developed vascular systems to transport nutrients and water throughout their large bodies. The xylem transports water and minerals up from the roots through dead conductive cells, while the phloem transports organic nutrients down from the leaves through living cells. Transpiration is the evaporation of water from leaves, and creates a transpirational pull that drives water absorption by roots and transport through xylem vessels up the stem using capillarity and osmosis.
9.2 transport- part1
Roots take up water and minerals from the soil. They have branches and root hairs that increase their surface area for absorption. Water enters roots through osmosis as root cells have a higher solute concentration than the soil. Minerals enter through active transport against their concentration gradient. Water moves through the root via two pathways - through the cell walls (apoplast pathway) or through the cytoplasm and plasmodesmata between cells (symplast pathway). Most water is drawn up through transpiration and replaced through the roots.
Food Production & The Environment
This document summarizes key processes in plant cells and how plants produce food. It discusses that plant cells contain organelles like the nucleus and chloroplasts which are not present in animal cells. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts and requires carbon dioxide, water, chlorophyll and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by the concentration of carbon dioxide, light intensity and temperature. Plants and animals are interdependent as plants produce oxygen for animals and animals produce the carbon dioxide needed for photosynthesis. The document also outlines how water and minerals are transported within plants and how transpiration occurs.
Chapter 9 Transport in Plants Lesson 2 - Xylem and Phloem structure and function
Vascular tissues transport water, minerals, and food throughout plants. Xylem tissue transports water and minerals from roots to stems and leaves through hollow, nonliving cells. Phloem tissue transports manufactured food like sucrose from leaves to other plant parts through sieve tubes and companion cells. Mineral salts enter root hairs through diffusion while water enters through osmosis, then both are transported through the xylem to the rest of the plant.
Transport in flowering plants
The document is a PowerPoint presentation for a grade 9 biology class on transport in flowering plants. It summarizes that plants have two transport systems: xylem and phloem. Xylem vessels carry water and minerals from the roots to the leaves, while phloem tubes carry manufactured food from the leaves to other plant parts. Key structures like root hairs, vascular bundles and stomata are also explained in their role in plant transport.
Transportation of Water in Plants
Water is transported through plants via osmosis from the soil into root hair cells and then into xylem cells due to root pressure. It moves up the plant through xylem cells via capillary action against gravity. Xylem cells are dead and hollow, allowing for rapid water transport, and have hardened cell walls to prevent collapse when water is pulled through. Long-distance transport of water occurs within xylem cells from the roots through the stem and branches and into leaf veins, driven by transpiration.
Plant transport ppt
This document discusses plant transport mechanisms including passive and active transport. It describes the key plant tissues involved - xylem and phloem. Xylem transports water and minerals from roots to shoots, while phloem transports sugars from leaves to other plant parts. Water potential, determined by solute concentration and pressure, drives the movement of water and solutes within plant cells and tissues.
Science journey of a drop through a plant
1. Water is absorbed by root hairs in the soil and moves into root cells through osmosis. It then travels through xylem cells to the leaves.
2. In the leaves, water moves out of xylem and into mesophyll cells, where it is used for photosynthesis. Excess water then exits the plant through stomata.
3. The opening and closing of stomata allows for gas exchange needed for photosynthesis, but also causes water loss through transpiration.

This document provides an overview of plant anatomy, beginning with basic root, shoot, and leaf structures. It then expands on these structures, describing components like nodes, internodes, buds, and veins. Key plant tissues are explored in more depth, including vascular, dermal, and ground tissues, as well as the cell types that comprise them. Specific cell functions are linked to their structures. The roles of xylem and phloem in transporting water, minerals, and nutrients are detailed. Differences in vascular tissue and root structures between monocots and dicots are noted.
Water movement through a Plant
The document summarizes how water is absorbed and transported in plants. Water is absorbed from the soil into root hair cells through osmosis due to differences in water concentration. It is then transferred through the xylem tissue to all parts of the plant. Water is lost through transpiration, the evaporation of water from leaves, stems, flowers and roots. Transpiration helps drive the flow of water through the xylem.
Chapter 9 Transport in Plants Lesson 3 - The 3 mechanisms in water transport_...
There are three main mechanisms by which plants transport water and nutrients upwards against gravity: 1) Root pressure, 2) Capillary action, and 3) Transpiration pull. Capillary action is caused by the properties of adhesion and cohesion in water molecules. Transpiration pull is the suction force created by evaporation of water from leaves that pulls water up through the xylem vessels. Factors like humidity, temperature, wind, and leaf size affect the transpiration rate.
9.2 phloem
Plants transport organic compounds between sources and sinks via phloem tissue. Phloem is composed of sieve tube members and companion cells connected by plasmodesmata. Sieve tube members lack organelles to transport water and solutes efficiently via hydrostatic pressure gradients. Active transport loads organic compounds into phloem at sources, creating concentration gradients that drive water uptake by osmosis and bulk flow of solutes to sinks. Experiments use aphids to measure rates of phloem transport by sampling sap at different locations along the stem. Seeds act as sources during germination when providing nutrients, and as sinks when being formed in flowers and depositing nutrients.
movement of water from root to atmosphere
Water moves through soil, plants, and the atmosphere via three main mechanisms: bulk flow, diffusion, and osmotic flow. In soil, water moves through bulk flow from regions of high water potential to regions of low water potential in response to pressure gradients. In plants, transpiration pull and capillary action drive bulk flow of water through the xylem. Water then diffuses out of leaf mesophyll cells and across the leaf boundary layer before entering the atmosphere by diffusion and convection. Membranes regulate water movement via osmotic flow in response to solute concentration gradients. Stomatal control and the cohesion-tension mechanism facilitate long-distance water transport while minimizing water loss.
04 Transport System in Multicellular Plants
This document discusses the transport systems in multicellular plants. It notes that plants have two transport systems - one for carrying water and inorganic ions from roots to above ground parts, and another for carrying substances made by photosynthesis from leaves to other areas. The xylem transports water and minerals upwards from the roots, while the phloem transports sugars and other organic compounds downward and throughout the plant. The document outlines the distribution of xylem and phloem tissues in roots, stems, and leaves of dicotyledonous plants. It also describes the processes of transpiration, transport of water from soil to roots to xylem and ultimately leaves, and factors that influence transpiration rate.
Plant physio water balance in plants
Water is essential for plant growth and movement. It moves through plants via transpiration and absorption by roots. Soil type influences water retention and availability - sandy soil drains quickly while clay soil retains more water. Plants face a physiological dilemma in opening stomata to uptake CO2 while minimizing water loss through transpiration. Water moves through xylem via cohesion-tension, pulling water upwards against gravity through transpiration.
Stomatal regulation
The document discusses stomatal regulators in plant leaves. Stomata are openings bounded by guard cells that allow gases and water to move in and out of the leaf. Guard cells control the opening and closing of stomata in response to various environmental factors like light, temperature, carbon dioxide levels, and water availability. When guard cells absorb potassium ions and water, their turgor pressure increases, causing the stomata to open for gas exchange. Conversely, loss of ions and water from guard cells decreases their turgor pressure and triggers stomatal closing. The document provides details on the mechanisms and factors influencing stomatal movement.
Transport of water\ water transport in plants
Water is absorbed by the root hair cell by the process called, Osmosis.
Root hairs are made up of epidermal cells, which are present on the surface of the root.
they also increase the surface area for absorption
SYMPLAST PATHWAY:
In this pathway, water and minerals move from the cytoplasm of one cell in to the next, via plasmodesmata eventually reaching the xylem.
APOPLAST PATHWAY:
In this pathway, water and dissolved minerals travel through the cell walls that surround plant cells.
WATER UPTAKE BY ROOT.pptx
Roots absorb water through osmosis and transpiration. Root hairs absorb water from the soil through osmosis due to their cell sap having a lower water potential than the soil solution. The water moves into the root cortex and then into the stele through passage cells that lack suberin casings. It travels up the xylem vessels through transpiration pull from the leaves. There are three pathways for water movement: apoplastic through cell walls, symplastic through plasmodesmata, and transmembrane through cell membranes. Active absorption is driven by root cell osmosis while passive absorption relies on transpiration pull from the leaves.
Science journey of a drop through a plant
Water is absorbed into plant roots through root hairs via osmosis. It then moves through xylem cells to all parts of the plant. Within leaves, water moves from xylem to palisade and spongy mesophyll cells, where it is used for photosynthesis. Excess water then diffuses out of stomata openings, driven by transpiration.

plant phisiology
According to new research, the first plants evolved on Earth about 700 million years ago, earlier than previously thought. These early plants included bryophytes and seedless vascular plants. Plants are categorized as either avascular or vascular. Vascular plants have specialized tissues like xylem and phloem that transport water and nutrients. Xylem transports water and minerals upward through a plant, while phloem transports food. Transpiration is the process by which plants release water vapor through stomata, pulling water up from the roots. Factors like humidity, temperature, and wind influence a plant's transpiration rate.
Absorption of water ppt
Bajrang Bali presented on the absorption of water by plants. Water is absorbed through the root hairs located in the root hair zone and transported throughout the plant. Water can be absorbed actively, using energy from respiration, or passively through transpiration pull. Active absorption involves osmotic forces or can be non-osmotic, while passive absorption relies solely on transpiration. Factors like soil water availability, temperature, aeration, transpiration rate, and root morphology affect the absorption of water. Aquaporin proteins in cell membranes aid the transport of water molecules across plant cells.
Transportation In Plants
Plants have transport systems to move water, minerals and food throughout their bodies. Xylem transports water and minerals from roots to other parts, consisting of dead xylem vessels with lignified walls to maintain flow. Phloem transports sugars and amino acids made in leaves to other parts, using sieve tubes and companion cells. Together these systems conduct minerals, water and food throughout the plant.
9.2 transport in angiospermophytes

Notes .pptx
Water transport in plants occurs through xylem tissue. Transpiration creates a pulling force that draws water up from the roots through the xylem. Transpiration occurs as water evaporates from the leaves and exits through stomata, creating negative pressure. Cohesion between water molecules and adhesion of water to cell walls allows the water column to remain intact over great heights. Together, root pressure and transpirational pull drive the absorption and movement of water through the xylem from roots to leaves.
Notes .pptx
Water transport in plants occurs through xylem vessels. Transpiration creates a pulling force that draws water up from the roots through the stem and into the leaves. This transpirational pull is facilitated by the cohesive forces between water molecules and adhesive forces between water and vessel walls. Opening and closing of stomata controls the rate of transpiration and water loss from the leaves. Together, root pressure and transpirational pull drive the absorption and ascent of water through the xylem vessels against gravity to heights of over 100 meters in tall plants.
BIO 2203 Lecture 3 WATER TRANSPORT or TRANSLOCATION.pptx
Water transport in plants occurs through xylem tissue. Water moves upwards through the plant via transpiration pull and cohesion-tension forces. Evaporation from leaves creates negative pressure that pulls water upwards from the roots. Water adheres to itself through hydrogen bonding, allowing columns of water to form. Transpiration is regulated by stomata opening and closing in response to environmental conditions. Xerophytic plants have adaptations like reduced stomata to minimize water loss through transpiration.

2. In plants, xylem transports water and minerals from the roots to other parts, and phloem transports sucrose and amino acids between leaves and other parts.
3. Transpiration is the evaporation of water from plant leaves, and creates a pull that draws water up through the xylem from the roots.
Transport in plants 3 transpiration
1. Transpiration is the movement of water from the roots of a plant through the xylem and leaves where it evaporates from the surfaces of mesophyll cells and exits through stomata.
2. Factors like light, temperature, humidity, and wind affect the transpiration rate by influencing how open the stomata are and the rate of evaporation.
3. Water is transported throughout the plant via the xylem through a combination of cohesion, adhesion, and transpirational pull which creates a column of water with tensile strength that pulls water up from the roots to the leaves.
Transportation in plant
1. The document discusses the transport structures in plants, including xylem and phloem tissues. Xylem transports water and minerals upwards from the roots to the leaves, while phloem transports food like sugar downward from leaves to other plant parts.
2. Transpiration is the process where water evaporates from the leaves and creates a transpiration pull that draws water up the xylem. Factors like temperature, light intensity, and humidity affect the transpiration rate.
3. Capillary action and adhesion between water and xylem vessels walls helps push water upwards against gravity, along with root pressure and transpiration pull. Together these forces facilitate the movement of water through the plant.

Transport systems in plants.pptx
This document discusses the transport systems in dicotyledonous plants. It describes the three main tissue types - dermal, vascular, and ground tissues. The dermal tissue provides an outer protective covering. The vascular tissue, made up of xylem and phloem, transports water, minerals and organic nutrients throughout the plant. The ground tissue fills the internal space. Secondary growth in woody plants is driven by the vascular cambium, which produces secondary xylem and phloem. Water and minerals enter the roots through three pathways - transmembrane, symplastic, and apoplastic. They are then transported through the xylem to the leaves. In the leaves, transpiration creates a pulling force that draws
general biology 2
The first plants evolved on Earth about 700 million years ago, earlier than previously thought. Early land plants included bryophytes and seedless vascular plants. Vascular plants have specialized tissues for transporting water and nutrients throughout the plant. The movement of water from the soil through the plant and out of its leaves is driven by transpiration and the cohesion-tension theory. Transpiration is influenced by environmental factors like humidity, temperature, and wind speed.
Year 11 Module B4 Revision Notes
Plants are adapted for photosynthesis through features like broad, thin leaves with a waxy cuticle and stomata. Leaves contain chloroplasts and veins that transport water and nutrients. Photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose from carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight. Transpiration creates a water flow through xylem vessels from roots to leaves. Intensive farming aims to maximize food production but can harm the environment through pesticide use and loss of habitats. Alternatives include organic farming, hydroponics, and biological pest control.
Transport in vascular_plants..
Transport in plants occurs through two main tissues: xylem and phloem. Xylem transports water and minerals up from the roots through the stem and leaves using a combination of root pressure and transpiration pull. Transpiration is the evaporation of water from leaves, which creates a negative water potential that pulls water up through the xylem vessels and tracheids. Phloem transports sugars made during photosynthesis from leaves to areas of growth or storage through pressure flow, where sugars move from high pressure source tissues to low pressure sink tissues.

Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

Embracing Deep Variability For Reproducibility and Replicability
Abstract: Reproducibility (aka determinism in some cases) constitutes a fundamental aspect in various fields of computer science, such as floating-point computations in numerical analysis and simulation, concurrency models in parallelism, reproducible builds for third parties integration and packaging, and containerization for execution environments. These concepts, while pervasive across diverse concerns, often exhibit intricate inter-dependencies, making it challenging to achieve a comprehensive understanding. In this short and vision paper we delve into the application of software engineering techniques, specifically variability management, to systematically identify and explicit points of variability that may give rise to reproducibility issues (eg language, libraries, compiler, virtual machine, OS, environment variables, etc). The primary objectives are: i) gaining insights into the variability layers and their possible interactions, ii) capturing and documenting configurations for the sake of reproducibility, and iii) exploring diverse configurations to replicate, and hence validate and ensure the robustness of results. By adopting these methodologies, we aim to address the complexities associated with reproducibility and replicability in modern software systems and environments, facilitating a more comprehensive and nuanced perspective on these critical aspects.

TOPIC OF DISCUSSION: CENTRIFUGATION SLIDESHARE.pptx
Centrifugation is a powerful technique used in laboratories to separate components of a heterogeneous mixture based on their density. This process utilizes centrifugal force to rapidly spin samples, causing denser particles to migrate outward more quickly than lighter ones. As a result, distinct layers form within the sample tube, allowing for easy isolation and purification of target substances.
The cost of acquiring information by natural selection
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.

Water transport in plants
- 1. MECHANISM OF H2O TRANSPORT AND PATHWAY OF H2O ACROSS THE ROOT AND PLANT Presented to: MAM SUMMERA JAHAN Presented by: MAHREEN IJAZ 18441506-066
- 2. WHY DO PLANTS REQUIRE WATER?
- 3. Actually plants need water for manufacturing food during Photosynthesis.
- 4. In which conditions plants need water? TRANSPIRATION TRANSPORT OF WATER ABSORPTION
- 5. Mechanism of H2O Transport Water is absorbed in the region of Root hair Dilute soil solution have high water potential Root hair have low water potential as compare to Dilute soil solution Water will move from Soil to Roots by “Osmosis” and “Passive transport” OSMOSIS & PASSIVE TRANSPORT Movement of water through a from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration, for equalize the concentrations of the water. Osmosis is passive transport, it does not require energy to be applied.
- 6. Water from the cell Root hair & then in the epidermal cells Water potential gradient develops between the adjacent cells in the root Facilitate the movement of water in the root
- 7. Pathway of water across the roots Dilute soil solution have high water potential as compare to root hair so water will move from soil to root. ROOT HAIRS: Root hairs re extremely thin wall. Water can easily move inside the root hair After receiving the water from soil, root hair have high water potential as compare to epidermal cells so, it gives water to epidermal cells. EPIDERMAL CELLS: They are flat cells and from this numerous root hairs grow in soil. It protects against: Water loss, Regulates gas exchange, Secretes metabolic compounds, And (especially in roots) absorbs water and mineral nutrients.
- 8. Pathway of water across the roots Then epidermal cells have high water potential and cortex have low so, epidermal cells gave water to cortex. CORTEX: They are thick walled cell and numerous air spaces are present in cortex .The functions of cortex is: Storage of photosynthetic products. It also help in uptake of water and minerals. So cortex have high water potential and it gives water to endodermal cells because endodermal cells have low water potential. ENDODERMAL CELLS: Thick walled cells and they have Caesarean strips. It helps: Regulate the movement of water Ions and hormones into and out of the vascular system.
- 9. Pathway of water across the roots After receiving water from cortex, endodermal cells have high water potential so it gives water to pericycle cells. PERICYCLE CELLS: Layer of living cells. The main function of the pericycle cells of vascular plants is to: Provide support Structure, And protection for the plant After this. pericycle cells have high water potential so it gives water to xylem cells so xylem cells have water and then water can move on the upper parts of plants. XYLEM CELLS: Center of the roots occupied by xylem cells and they have many round .small phloem. The basic function of xylem is: Transport water from roots to stems and leaves, But it also transports nutrients.
- 10. Pathway of water across the roots Dilute soil solution(high water potential & low solute potential) Root hair Epidermal cells Cortex Endodermal cells Pericycle cells Xylem cells
- 13. Transport of water in plants
- 14. Pathway of water across the root Water can move by Appoplast, Symplast & Vacuolar pathway in the root But in the Endodermal cells due to presence of Casparian strips appoplast can not operate because it is impermeable to water In the endodermal cells of roots water can move by Symplast pathway By vacuolar pathway Transfusion cells
- 15. Benefits of endodermal cells Filtration unit of the cell They can filter the Toxic substances Micro-organisms Pathogens Heavy metals Reduce backflow of water
- 16. Movement of water across the plant When xylem of the root have high water potential, that is why it gives water to xylem of the stem. After receiving water from xylem of the stem, it gives water to Xylem of the cell. Then, Xylem of the cell transpire water into mesophyll cells of the leaves and from the stomata water can transpire into the AIR. From this movement water can move across the plant.
- 17. Movement of water across the plant Water will transpire into air Deficiency of H2O in the mesophyll cells and then stomata Xylem of the cell Xylem of the stem Xylem of the root
