Select which of the following statements are true for phloem.

Bi-directional movement (up and down stem).

Elongated, tubular shape with thin walled sieve tubes.

Transportation of feed and nutrients.

Occupy the centre of the vascular bundle.

Water and mineral transport from roots to aerial parts of the plant.

Which statement describes the phloem transport system of plants?

It transports sugar and is not lignified

It transports sugar and is lignified

It transports water and is lignified

What is the effect of increasing leaf area on transpiration?

It increases transpiration rate

It decreases transpiration rate

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

Provide ATP for active transport

Provide glucose for active transport

Provide ATP for passive transport

Provide glucose for passive transport

During translocation, which of the below is NOT correct about hydrostatic pressure in the sieve tube.

Hydrostatic pressure in source is lower than in sink

Hydrostatic pressure in source is higher than in sink

Hydrostatic pressure push the fluid from region with high hydrostatic pressure to lower hydrostatic presure.

Hydrostatic pressure increase due to low osmotic pressure in sieve tube

The pressure flow model for phloem translocation states..

the pressure gradient between the sieve elements at the source and the sink drives phloem transport

that sink strength drives transport in the pholem

that transport in treachery elements is pressure dependent

the water potential gradient in the sieve elements drives transport

In an apple tree, it is expected that the sugars produced by the tree would flow from (i)____________ to (ii)__________________. Choose the option that would correctly fill in the terms in the sentence above.

(i) a leaf (ii) a growing apple

(i) the roots (ii) a growing shoot
