If the xylem in a tree is damaged, which process would affected?
performing photosynthesis
transporting sugar to the roots
protecting the plant
transporting water to the leaves
What are the 3 main plant organs?
dermal, vascular, ground
roots, stems, leaves
roots, stems, flowers
roots, ground, vascular
Primary growth is the result of growth of cells made by the ..
cork cambium.
vascular cambium.
primary xylem.
apical meristems.
Where does sugar transport begin?
Roots
Leaves
Root hairs
Vascular bundles
If a plant's xylem were destroyed, it would not be able to
transport sugar to the roots.
transport minerals from the leaves to the roots.
transport water and nutrients from the roots through the shoot system to the leaves.
transport sugar from the roots through the shoots system to the leaves.
Once sugar is produced during photosynthesis, it is
used up by the plant for energy.
transported to the "sinks" for storage.
transported from the leaves to the stalk for storage.
transported out of the stomata to attract pollinators.
What are leaves referred to as when discussing movement of sugars through the phloem?
Sources
Sinks
How are the xylem and phloem arranged in plant roots?
In the centre of the root
In bundles near the edge of the root
Evenly spaced out across the root
Randomly arranged in the root
Will produce a new leaf or stem.
node
bud
cambium
pith
What is the name for the ground tissue in leaves where photosynthesis takes place?
Meristem
Cortex
Mesophyll
Pith
Root pressure
is produced in the vascular cylinder by active transport.
forces water in the xylem downward.
is produced within the cortex of the root.
causes a plant's roots to absorb water.
There is one way movement of water and minerals from the cortex into the vascular cylinder of roots because
water molecules are high in concentration in the cortex.
the root pressure is low.
nutrients are in low concentration in the cortex.
the Casparian strip is waterproof.
What best describes the process depicted in the image?
osmosis of water from the xylem into the phloem, as explained by the pressure-flow hypothesis
diffusion of sugar from the xylem, as explained by the pressure-flow hypothesis
diffusion of water from the phloem, as explained by the pressure-flow hypothesis
osmosis of water into the xylem from the phloem, as explained by the pressure-flow hypothesis
How do the functions of the three types of ground tissue differ?
They all store substances, but parenchyma and collenchyma also provide support.
They form roots, stems, and leaves.
The all store substances, but collenchyma and sclerenchyma also provide support.
They form the vascular cylinder.
