Means of Transport in Plants

The video tutorial explains the transport of substances in plants, highlighting the differences from human circulatory systems. It covers short and long distance transport, including the roles of xylem and phloem. The video delves into simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport, explaining the processes and factors affecting them. It emphasizes the importance of concentration gradients and the role of proteins in facilitated and active transport.
