• Tracheids

• Companion cell

• Sieve plate

Elements which are transported throughout plants are called

• Inorganic

ATP and protein is supplied to companion cells via

• sieve tubes

• porous wall

• cell wall

• vascular tissue

What is the most abudant solute in phloem sap?

• amino acids

• hormones

• sugar

• minerals

Which of the following statement is true about sieve tube cells?

• Sieve tube cells are nucleated but devoid of mitochondria and ER

• Companion cells are non-nucleated and regulated by nucleated sieve cell

• Sieve tube cells are present in all plants

• Companion cells are nucleated and regulates activity of non-nucleated sieve tube

What is the best words to describe sugar source and sugar sink

• Both are plants organ and act as storage

• Sugar sink can be either roots, fruit or mature leaves and sugar source is shoots

• Sugar source act as site for sugar production and sugar sink will store sugar

• Companion tube carry food from a sugar source to a sugar sink
