Why glucose converted to sucrose before translocation occur?

• Sucrose is large molecule

• Sucrose is non-reducing sugar

• Sucrose is reducing sugar

• Sucrose is insolluble in water

In the pressure flow hypothesis, sucrose is loading into the sieve tube by

• osmosis

• passive transport

• active transport

• diffusion

What is the important of companion cell between source and sieve tube?

• Provide glucose for active transport

• Provide ATP for active transport

• Provide ATP for passive transport

• Provide glucose for passive transport

Loading of sucrose actively in the sieve tube will causes

• Water pressure in sieve tube decrease

• Accumulation of sucrose in sieve tube and water potential remain unchanged

• Sucrose dissolved in water and lowered the water potential in sieve tube

• Sucrose converted into dissolved glucose which lowered the water potential in sieve tube
