Front

What is the function of vascular tissue in plants?

Back

Vascular tissue is responsible for the transport of water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and converts it into chemical energy during photosynthesis.

Front

What is the difference between dermal tissue and vascular tissue?

Back

Dermal tissue protects the plant, while vascular tissue transports materials.
