Total questions: 12
Worksheet time: 9mins
Transpiration is part of the process in xylem transportation
True
False
Transportation in Phloem involves these product except
Amino acids
Hormones
Sugars
Minerals
Three main zones of root structure are area of maturation, area of elongation and (a)
Root hairs also involved in the formation of the mycorrhizal associations and in nodulation with nitrogen fixing bacteria
False
True
The water potential in the soil solution is close but lower than 1.0
False
True
Water will always move from the lower water potential (negative) to higher water potential (positive)
True
False
Water potential is affected by many parameters except:
Gravity
Physical pressure
Temperature
Osmotic pressure
These statements are right in mentioning the ion transportion in the roots except:
Ions are taken up into the root by active transport process
Ions are transported into the xylem by passive diffusion
ions in the symplast of the root must exit the symplast and enter the xylem
Ions in the symplast must exit the symplast and enter the apoplast
Casparian strip controls the amount of waterand minerals the plants absorb from the soil
True
False
Photosynthetically active areas of the plant is called sources while the parts of the plants that need photosynthate is called sinks.
False
True
Apoplastic pathway is the movement of water and minerals through cytoplasm
False
True
Tension and cohesion is the basis for water movement upwards in the xylem
True
False
