Transpiration and translocation

Process in which food substances are moved to the rest of plant by phloem is known as

• transpiration

• respiration

• photosynthesis

• translocation

Select the correct term for the following definition:

"The water transport system in plants."

• Villi

• Bronchi

• Bolus

• Xylem

Recall the main function of a xylem cell.

• To transport nutrients (mainly sucrose) to different parts of a plant.

• To make energy for the plant via photosynthesis.

• To transport carbon dioxide to the leaves for photosynthessis.

• To transport water to different parts of plant.
